Booked a 2 bedroom suite with 2 queen beds and 2 bathrooms. Was provided with 2 queen beds, 1 room and only 1 bathroom. Spent over an hour trying to rectify but finally gave up to go forward with vacation plan. Embassy said it was hotel.com issue. Hotel.com could not provide booking detail showing what their site offered/what I purchased. Also, was disappointed that the indoor pool was frigid-not heated so not at all enjoyable.

Saved by the Staff! Update the property, not staff
The staff at this Embassy Suites is top notch! The property is in desperate need of renovation. Lots of rust and worn out items. Only two of the three elevators would go to our floor. The indoor pool should be advertised as a cold plunge, as it’s not heated and was too cold to use. The parking garage had only one of the two elevators working, it’s a free standing structure, very unsecured, making the $42.00 very steep!! The evening reception was ok, but cheezits shouldn’t count as an appetizer, very skippy on the food. Breakfast was very good!! Two staff members were maintaining the large section of food. The omelette station was great. Several guests mentioned that they would prefer to have pancakes as an option every morning, they were only available once in our six day stay.

Terrible food service. Menu and hours were limited, and, although we had made reservations in October, we were not told about the limited room service until check in. I have been staying at this hotel since the early 90’s, and can clearly say it has significantly declined in quality. This may have been our last stay.
