Things like icky ice machine, terrible responding and dated tv worked my nerves, no business center, and just overall cleaniness of the hotel is the reason for an average rating. Highlights are the art work around the place and whiskey bar.

Do not try it.

Upon arrival my first room has dirty sheets, which was evident by makeup and hair and wrinkles. I was moved to a new room which had a very strong odor of chemicals that was inspected by maintenance and I was told it was cleaning supplies. I was advised to open a window and I slept overnight with a headache. The next morning before our tour I went to blow dry my hair and the blow dryer was broken, I called 4 times and it took 30 minutes to finally get a hair dryer up to the room. I ended up checking out that same morning a day early. Overall I would never recommend or stay here again.
