| - The Metropolitan is a magnificent hotel in Cleveland.
The location is fantastic. It's within walking distance of Progressive Field, Quicken Loans arena, Playhouse Square, the Warehouse District, and tons of restaurants and bars.
I arrived at the hotel at about 10:30 on a Thursday. I knew it was early, so I just asked the gentleman at the front desk if I could keep my bag somewhere while I did some sightseeing. Thankfully a room was available and the gentleman happily checked me in.
The room was gorgeous. Modern and upscale, but very comfortable. The room had a king sized bed, sitting area and a large, very nice TV. My only complaint was that there was no mini fridge in the room.
As others have mentioned, be careful of the mini bar snacks. They are uber sensitive. I just ended up touching the phone charger and was billed. They were more than happy to remove the charge.
During my stay, I dined at the restaurant, Adega. Breakfast was fantastic. I also had a drink at the Ledger Bar in the hotel. The staff were nice, but $15.00 for a mediocre cosmo was a bit steep. I also met with some people and went to the Vault Dance Club. It was a blast.
All the staff were extremely friendly. From the Valets, to the Doormen to the housekeeping staff, I was always greeted warmly.
I can't say enough nice things about this hotel. I'm already planning a trip next year to see an Indians/Tigers game and I can't wait!
