I chose this hotel based upon others reviews location AND the 24 hour front desk. I was scheduled to meet old friends for a reunion but did not know at what time that night.when I arrived I noticed a handwritten sign at check in desk: “Front desk is closed from midnight to …”. I asked and the guy said “ oh you can just call me if you need to get in after that. I e been in situations like this in the past and it did not always go well: my phone battery died, no one answered, etc. so I texted hotels. Com and had an infuriating exchange with a live agent who, after fifteen minutes trying to explain said “ I called the hotel and they says to call back at 23.00 to confirm that they are there. Apart from that the mattress was old and very uncomfortable, the balcony filthy, etc. on the other hand the guy at the front desk was very kind and thoughtful. This misrepresentation of services and quality of lodging is unacceptable from a giant in hotel platform.
