delicious foodexcellent locationbroken phonediscolored water
I admired the restaurants on the hotel. The food at the Boat House and Golden Lyon Vintage Pub was delicious. The pool was also very relaxing. The hotel's location on Las Olas Boulevard is excellent with many shops nearby
The phone in my room did not work properly. I also noticed the water in the toilet was discolored after each flush. The plastic cup had a hole in it. I kept bumping my head on the light sconces.

Good Location, Some Dated Aspects
central locationfriendly staffhelpful staffdated hotelpoor lighting
The location is really great for walking to many restaurants. It is also near the riverfront. The water taxi stop is very close (just around the corner, actually). I also found the staff professional and helpful .
I observed the hotel is somewhat dated. My room had insufficient lighting. I had to leave the bathroom light on to brighten the room.

The hotel features on-site parking. Restaurants are conveniently available within the hotel. Staff members were friendly. I enjoyed that my room was clean.
The mattresses were really hard. I experienced the worst sleep I have ever had in a hotel. I left tired and sore from that bed. I hope they remedy this soon.
