The bathroom sink drain was extremely slow, washing your hands for 20 seconds and there the bowl is half full, takes about 15 minutes to drain. One of the two beds did not have a flat sheet, so just a comforter to sleep under. Called the front dest upon check in for this and was told i was mistaken. We were extremely tired, it was late and i just tried to sleep. The next day our family was out doing our thing, a tip was let on the table for housekeeping wirh a note asking for the additional sheet. When we returned to our room at 9 pm our room had not been cleaned which meant no clean dry towels ethier. I called the front desk explaining and asked for towels, was told they would be brought up shortly. Nothing at 10, called and was told it would be an hour, asked if i could come down and get some and was told they weren't available at the desk. At 11 i called again and was told i couldn't get towels until after midnight. I wouldn't ever book this hotel again. Should have considered the previous reviews closer prior to booking but i figured they were just dramatic complaints, i think i was wrong on that part.

Check in time was 4:00pm, arrived at 6:30pm and were told they had no rooms ready (housekeeping was understaffed and delayed significantly). We joined a waitlist with a handful of other hotel guests waiting for rooms to be cleaned and to get our keys. Got to the room around 7:30pm and staff at the front desk was polite about it but it was a major inconvenience when traveling with a small child who needed to get to bed. The front desk, to their credit, comped our daily parking fees which was kind of them for the inconvenience. Hotel was under renovations during our stay, which was not obvious when we booked. Several things simply weren’t working or were in poor repair. Most of these were small things- for instance, the water fountain in the fitness center wasn’t working, the toilet paper holder in our bathroom was broken, and the mini fridge in the room was broken. But the biggest knock against the hotel was the water- it smelled and tasted stinky. Even just washing your hands in the sink or taking a shower in the bathroom, the smell of the water was strong. There is a water bottle filler on the first floor off the lobby and even that has the smelly/nasty tasting water. Not sure if it is the pipes in this hotel or if this is typical for the area. This may not be an issue for some people, but if you are the kind of person who likes reusable water bottles and filling your water bottle regularly.

Could not check in and get a room unttil 6:45 pm. Absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. Then no wash cloths and bathmat in room and only 2 towels. It took at least an hour and a half to get those delivered.Hotel is either grossly understaffed or incompetently managed or both. Hardly worth paying $234.00 a night for a third rate property under extensive renovation. A very pitiful representative of thearriott Rennaissance brand.
