The check in was great. We ask for connecting rooms but it wasn't available, we were side by side. We had our daughter, 33 and her friend. The people in the room next to them were l loud, very very loud, they called security 2 times. They were told to quite down, the second time, security stood close by and they over heard the people yell, want us to be quite, here you go. And they got even louder, not sure what happened then. My daughter is fighting breast cancer and needed to rest. We told told front desk when we left. She put info on computer, so when you called they had everything you would need. We are requesting a refund. My daughter did not get the rest she needed so she ended up using wheelchair the rest of our day.

I had issues with the parking garage and the front desk said it was not something they could help me resolve because it was another company. My bed comforter was stained. Had to use the hand held shower head because the water flow was poor. Was confronted by a homeless person inside the entrance of the hotel. Now I found out I was charge $1.00 twice for what I don't know. The concierge was clueless and could not understand him.

While the hotel and staff were accommodating and nice, we paid for a king jacuzzi room and experienced no hot water in the jacuzzi, making the upgraded room a waste of money spent.

Overall a very nice 2 night stay in this classic hotel @ very inexpensive rates for reasons I’m not entirely clear. The reason it’s not a 5 star is because we called the front desk in the mid morning to report (1) our shampoo bottle was empty in the shower and (2) there was a reading light - light bulb - out by the bed. We were assured this would be handled during the day. We returned 12 hours later to the same issues!

The location was perfect for us. We could walk or take the free trolley everywhere we wanted to go. Only one staff person was helpful- the hostess at the restaurant acted as a concierge and gave us maps and directions. The front desk clerk when we checked in was NOT helpful in the least. Did not even tell us we had to use the room key to use the elevator or where to find baggage carts. Our room service tray from the first night was still in the hallway 2 days later. It took over 10 minutes for them to even answer the phone to place an order. Maid service was good.

This property needs a MAJOR RENOVATION! The Staff was very lack luster and were not able to help me with finding a blanket or connecting to the WIFI. I moved rooms twice to properly connect to the wifi but to no avail, I was never able to get on the internet. All of the shops in the basement were vacant. The hotel had potential but for the price I paid, potential isn’t enough.

The parking lot is disconnected, so there is a bit of travel from one building to another and a few elevator rides to get back to the hotel. The property is in what seems to be an abandoned mall. It gives creepy more than historic.

They did not have a mini suite room that I originally reserved available. They then gave me a downgraded room a larger size, two queen bed room, and charged me the same price. I wasn’t happy with being charged the same price for a downgraded room.

Worst property I’ve ever stayed in my life. Everything is severely outdated. Furniture, carpet, wallpaper, and fixtures were all from the plate 60s to early 70s. The bed was rockhard and old and everything had stains on it. The drapes did not open. The toilet was from a public school. And the shower never worked.

Gorgeous hotel with beautifully restored Art Deco style detailing everywhere you look. Nice big room, comfy beds, quiet and comfortable. Nice hotel bar/restaurant, easy access to several other restaurants, coffee shops, etc, within walking distance. Stayed here for a convention at the Duke Energy Center, and was a perfect place for that. Would happily stay here again.
