We returned from a
hard
day shopping with achy feet and beyond exhausted, to find our bed turned down, the radio on and the lights dimmed.

That is
hard
to believe, as it's not like the hotel is making other efforts to be green (they still have incandescent light bulbs, housekeeping leaves the lights and radio on when they do turn down, they don't recycle in room, etc).
"4.5 stars? That is optimistic at best. "

There was an odd,
hard
banquette and a side chair made of paperclips, or so it seemed.

' When we pointed out that the room was exactly what we had booked and NOT an upgrade, he insisted it was and had I not had a
hard
copy of the reservation, he still wouldn't have believed us to this day.

And the sliding hanging door to the bathroom was a classic example of design over function - it fell off the rails, was
hard
to open and close, and even a note to housekeeping didn't solve the problem.

makes it a bit
hard
er to work- often
hard
to get an answer from the front desk / concierge when calling by phone- only one sink in the bathroom (at least in the room type that we had)- rooms facing the street are noisy making it
hard
to sleep- chairs in room have nice design but aren't comfortableThe service isn't on par with the 5 star options in town.
"Nice property with friendly staff "
