“At capacity, the good and bad”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for two nights with my daughter who is 11. We were with our dance team at a convention and competition. Bell service was very good. The room could have been perfect but my coffee supplies were used and the used up pod still in the machine. Also the door handle on the bathroom was falling off. However,I loved the nice window and view. We liked the TV in the bathroom mirror too. Bed was comfortable. Pillows could be less lumpy. There is a refrigerator in the room which is convenient. Hotel has an excellent location for lots of eating and shopping.

The hotel was full this weekend and we did spend a lot of time waiting on elevators. The hotel is not equipped to handle the volume. There is only one bank of elevators. We sometimes waited for 4 or 5 to pass before being able to get on. Also the coffee shop tended to have very long lines. It might be nice to have a quick coffee kiosk in addition.

We did not have time to visit the pool or restaurants.
I would stay here again but beware perhaps of sold out weekends. Or at the least get the convention schedule and avoid high traffic times for the elevators.

“Pretty nice stay in the suburbs”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

Stayed here the last weekend on January 2012 because my cheer team was competing in a competition in the convention center the following day.
The parking somewhat stinks. Its a pretty far walk in the freezing cold from the lot to the hotel.
Check in was super fast and painless.
Was very happy with the room we were in (2 double beds) for the weekend rate of $87
Room was good for the price and very clean. Halls were quiet in the evening.
All in all the hotel was large and very clean and modern.

The only really bizarre thing was that they had a huge cheer competition the same day as a very large catholic deacon convention that the Cardinal was saying a mass at. I thought that was completely bizarre. Half naked cheerleaders and a religious convention?

“Best Hotel in the Area”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I stay here 7 or 8 times per year on business and I can't believe I haven't written a review of it before now. Full disclosure to put it in perspective: My company gets a fantastic rate at this hotel and I'm Marriott Platinum, so I get free amenities, upgraded rooms, and access to the Concierge lounge. This combination makes it an unbeatable value. But I've looked at the commercial rates and seen the regular rooms, and I would still recommend it to family and friends.

Some specifics:
- Excellent soundproofing on the windows and exterior walls. Even in the rooms that look out over I-90, you can't hear the traffic.
- The ventillation is quiet and effective with Auto and Manual fan choices.
- Good soundproofing between rooms.
- Spacious rooms, good lighting, nice work area, and functional furnishings.
- 2 excellent restaurants on site. Note: you can order from both menus in both restaurants.
- Great fitness center and pool area.
- Reasonable jogging routes outside.
- Free, convenient parking.
- Easy to get to.

I'll continue to stay here every chance I get.

Room Tip: They're all good. The top floor is hard to get, but has 16' celings and a private circular...

“Worth the 4 star rating and the food was terrific.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

All that you would expect a luxury business hotel to be. A broad cross section of menu samplings provided pleasant surprises and no disappointments.
