“UNBELIEVABLE Customer Service!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I can not rave enough about the customer service at this property. I am a road warrior and also work for a hotel so I am very critical about customer service. The staff here, especially the Front Desk Agent Machelle Gay, were exceptional! I left my jacket at home and stores were not open yet when I arrived in Cleveland. I was attending an outdoor hockey game and it was snowing outside and very cold. She graciously offered to let me use hers!!! I would have froze without it! She definitely sets a very high bar for fellow employees to follow!

The hotel is under renovation. Staff was apologetic for the mess, but was not a problem at all. I was in a renovated room that was very nice and comfortable. It was a busy weekend, but noise was not a factor. Location is great if attending Indians games as two (2) blocks from Progressive Field.

I will definitely recommend and use the hotel again based on my personal experience.

Good afternoon kcasto, I wanted to respond to your comments in hopes of clarifying your concerns. I thought our prior phone conversation detailed out the charges, I apologize if they were not clear to you.

I'm sorry to hear that you’re not open to staying with us in the future, our hotel has a great location and our rooms newly renovated. Not all of our rooms offer microwaves but our suites in fact do, in reviewing your reservation history I see you reserved a standard room. Our guests do have access to the microwave located in the breakfast area for future reference. As part of our recent renovation all of our beds have been replaced, we don't sell specific rooms with different beds; the sleeping experience we offer our guests is consistent throughout the hotel.

Currently our rooms do start at $129 per night plus tax, the package that you reserved offers a rate of $203 plus tax. The package rate included two tickets to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as well as valet parking. Upon check in we swipe your credit card and obtain an authorization that will cover your room charges, tax and approximately an extra 18% which in your case was about $42.00. The extra authorization is obtained to cover incidental charges such as telephone calls, pay per view movies, dry-cleaning charges, etc. Upon checkout whatever dollar amount is not needed is returned back to the issuing bank of the credit or debit card used. Based on the banks policy, they may take up to 3 to 5 days to return the unused funds to your account. If for whatever reason those funds have still not been released please let me know and I will assist you in contacting the bank to try to expedite the process.

In reference to the additional $250 charge, as we discussed, this was placed on your bill due to the condition you left the room in. The charge was for additional cleaning needed as I was unable to place another guest in that room without significant deep cleaning.

Again, I hope this clears up any confusion about our business practices. I want to make sure you understand the charges and eliminate your concerns of stealing money from your credit card. Should you have further questions or need additional copies of the charges please feel free to contact me and I will assist you in any way possible.

Thank you.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

Wife and I took in a Browns/Ravens game and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This hotel is within walking distance to both. We were greeted as Hilton Honors members and given a newly refurbished room on the top floor, room 1501. The staff was great, elevators were fast but that may be because 5 floors were closed for renovations. Water pressure was good. The included breakfast is one of the better Hampton breakfasts. The new flat screen tv was nice but there was no guide channel and some channels were not clear. Overall a great stay and would stay again.

“ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

The room may have been nice, even perhaps, the bed comfortable. But it pales in comparison to what happend on the day we checked out: After checking out of the hotel around noon on 1/1/12 to have lunch nearby, we returned approximately 2 hours later after realizing that my travel companion had left her coat in the closet of the room. We checked with the front desk and via radio we were informed: "there's no coat in the closet..." I had even returned to the room to confirm that the coat was in fact gone. No one had reported it missing, and none of
the housekeeping staff on the floor claimed to have seen it. Given that no one else had stayed in the room, and that we had only been gone a short time before returning for the coat, it stands to reason that a member of the staff must have seen it and moved it, yet would not return it, leaving my companion traveling without a coat in the middle of winter.

But wait, it gets "better"!

My companion called the hotel manager, Mike Reedy, on 1/3/12 to follow up on the situation;
And to this day has not even received the decency of a call back. I am absolutely disgusted with this poor level of customer service. I have been a fan of Hilton Brand hotels up until this trip, however it is apparent that no one at this establishment appears to care about the concerns of the guests there and the likelihood that a guest's coat was stolen in the middle of the winter.

You have been warned: If you leave something behind, its as good as GONE!!!

Good afternoon BTBear, thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the room and found the bed to be comfortable. I wanted to clear up any concerns you have, our guests and their concerns are very important to us, after all hospitality is our business.

I responded to your travel companion via email after she contacted me, I’m sorry if this information was not shared with you. I want to assure you that our team is well trained on lost and found procedures as we see numerous items left behind, some returned to their owner and some never claimed. I spoke to the head of housekeeping for the day and I found out that she was made aware of your travel companions’ call to the hotel to search for the coat. The Housekeeping manager immediately checked the room and was not able to locate the coat; this information was relayed to your travel companion over the phone. The Housekeeping manager also accompanied you to the room later when you returned to the hotel in search of the coat, as you know nothing was in the room.

I’m sorry that your travel companions coat has yet to be located. This leads me to believe that maybe the coat was not misplaced at the hotel. Is it possible the coat was left at another establishment during your visit to Cleveland over New Year’s Eve? You mentioned that upon leaving the hotel you went to lunch and 2 hours later realized the coat was missing. Could it be at the restaurant you ate lunch in? You also mentioned that a member of the staff must have moved it and not returned it leaving your travel companion traveling without a coat in the middle of winter. Did your travel companion leave the hotel for lunch in the middle of winter without wearing a coat; wouldn’t you notice at this point you did not have your coat on?

I can certainly understand your frustration and the reasons you would be “absolutely disgusted”. What you and your travel companion have had to deal with is very unfortunate. If I had reason to believe the hotel was negligent and at fault for the missing coat I would gladly take full responsibility. I’d be happy to assist you in contacting the other establishments you visited to see if the coat was found and if so I could arrange for it to be shipped to you. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to further discuss this.

“Really, a 4.5 out of 5”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I read on previous reviews to get an upper floor. They're remodeling, starting at the top and moving down. I was on the top floor (15th) and it was very nice! The room smelled like everything was new. The elevator opened on the 7th floor, where the remodeling is going on now. So try to get a floor above the 7th floor.

The bed was really comfy, the air unit was really quiet, the bathroom was huge with a good amount of counter space. The room and bathroom were decorated beautifully and I was really impressed with the room. The service was also great - everyone was so helpful.

One drawback is the location. On one hand this makes the area quiet with little street noise. But on the other hand, you have to walk several blocks to get to any decent eating places. (The Subway across the street had the worst service I've ever experienced by a Subway.)

The reason I can't give them a 5 rating is because some of the room doors slam shut. I was woke up two mornings in a row by the door of the room next door slamming shut. I did notice that my door didn't slam when it closed, so it must just be a problem with some rooms.

Also, the fitted sheet on my bed had a rip in it. It was up by the pillow so I'm surprised housekeeping didn't notice it. Or they probably did and just didn't feel like remaking the bed.
