First, I want to say if I'd known there was ANY smoking in the hotel, I wouldn't have booked a nonrefundable room, I would have looked elsewhere. My fault. When I saw that I'd accidentally booked a smoking room, I called the hotel to change it. The clerk was combative on the phone, and told me she would be unable to change it until I arrived. Okay, but I had to hope a nonsmoking room would be available when i got there. The clerk was friendly to me in person, though, and apologetic. So I got a nonsmokers room, but it was close to the stair well, so although the smoke didn't bother me, the room did have the faint odor of old ashtray, and the vending machines were on the first floor, in a smokey hallway. The room would have been nice, a pleasant view, comfortable bed, (though the pillows were lacking) and flat screen tv. If it wasn't for the underlying odor, I actually I would have preferred it to some of the five star hotels I've stayed at. But the odor wasn't worth it.
Room Tip: The rooms further away from the stairwells, might have had less of an ashtray odor.
