text: This is a frustrating hotel because so much of it is almost but not quitennThe renovation is reasonably stylish but the rooms are badly laid out with no power anywhere near the desknnThe bathrooms are coollooking but there is no place to hang a wash cloth in the shower and the tiny little shower caddy cannot hold travelsized bottles of toiletries including the ones they supplynnThe Wifi is fast and reliable and expensivennThe restaurant is pretty good and unofficially closes for a private party for the bartenders friends at when it is supposed to be open until nnThe north tower has four fast elevators two of which are out of servicennIts about a six block walk to anything in Uptown from here but hey exercisennThe staff is helpful and friendly to a point but that point comes when you ask for anything that is even slightly outside of standard and you are met with a varying degree of blank to cold starennIt feels like they want to be a San Francisco boutique hotel complete with attitude but they just do not have the budget or chops to do so If you are paying a convention or discounted rate I was paying night it is not terrible value for money More than that though and you have better options
