1. The bed was VERY comfortable with soft sheets, a nice down comforter and nice 'squishy' pillows.

2. We called the front desk and asked for sheets and after 40 minutes without sheets, I called back and got no answer until I called directly from my cell phone.

3. We still didn't get sheets but they comped us an additional room instead.

4. Everything was great until we got back to our room about 11 and went to pull out the couch bed and found no sheets and large stains on the mattress.

5. The sheets and comforter was still a topic to this day.

6. The rooms are very small; there is no self-serve ice machine (you must request ice from room service); valet parking is $25 per day (there is an $8 per day garage a block away); if you're accustomed to large screen, HDTV with a zillion channels, you'll be greatly disappointed by their small, dated televisions with about a dozen channels; the lovely restaurant and bar downstairs closes at 10; the shower has a glass enclosure with large gaps (after every shower, 5 bath sheets were required to sop up the flood); the view is mostly of bail bond businesses, parking lots, alleys and homeless people; the carpet was filthy and my room could have been vacuumed better but was generally clean.

7. The beds were very comfortable, felt like a substantial thread count on the sheets, pillows were softer than I usually go for, but fine, the bathroom had Aveda products, the views were great, and while the lack of ice bucket was a first, it wasn`t an issue, they even brought us a bigger one so that we wouldn`t need to continue to call down there.
