| - Quick weekend trip, friend had her reception in the ballroom so for the sake of not being drunk in a strange city, up the elevator we go! It's a Sheraton... i'm always apprehensive about chain hotels...so let's rate it accordingly lol.
Layout was nice, lobby was very pretty, grounds were gorgeous, everything clean and kept. We had brunch outside at the Indigo Bistro, pretty good. Our room was the average chain hotel room, furniture could afford to be updated, slightly shabby desk and chair. But hey its a Sheraton! Should be used to this if you go to marriotts and hyatts too!
Reception was very nice, ballroom was big and the food wasn't bad. She didn't have an open bar (uggghh) and the cash bar was limited on what was available. No worries. Walked up the hall to the Indigo Bistro bar and opened a tab. All was right in the world! Until....and this is where they lose half a star (sorry sheraton, one band one sound) the bartender was extremely skeet on the alcohol. My jack and cranberry was juice with a splash of liquor. Long island was a joke. Martinis were the only way to go. If you're going to charge 8.50 a drink can there please be some liquor in it?? Not cool. Luckily it didnt piss me off bc i was happy and sweating from dancing but yeah not cool.
Upon leaving my room i noticed underneath all the tour guides and room service menus on what i assumed were laundry tags or do not disturb signs, tags for the bottled water my mom and i guzzled when we checked in. The tags were suppose to be for the water, $4 for each bottle. Hmm Sheraton this is where u lost the other half star. A. This is not the ritz carlton, you should be ashamed of such inflation when ur wood furniture is scratched up. B. If the tags would have been on the water bottles i would have ran across the street to the gas station for a cheaper bigger bottle of evian. Smh. Matthew at checkout was nice about it and advised me he would waive the fee.
Overall i would say stay here! The beds were heavenly! Thats all u should be there for anyway!
