Kind of tricky elevators -- we had to help two people figure them out once they were on our elevator and couldn't get off on their floor.

They charge $900 for a room knowing that the room has a pipe (or something) making a high pitched sound in the middle of the night and there’s no reprieve.

The only thing I would have a suggestion about is the bathroom shower space can be better designed so the water doesn’t flow and spill on the floor when the shower is on.

A slow check-in7 of 2961 in 42 reviews
Was apparently given the worst room in the entire hotel, a fresh view of the mechanical equipment on the roof, constant banging from some known issue “that the engineers are trying to solve” and a failed commitment to have a room ready by 11:00 (2:30 was the eventual time) after traveling on a red…

Something stolen1 of 296 reviews
This hotel is everything but a 5 stars, the service is awful, some days they won’t clean your room, you are listening people from others rooms and be ready to get your stuff stolen by the cleaning ladies, they stole the Hermes sandals of my wife, and then treated us like a liar.
