"Disappointing, felt we paid for the amenities and they werenโ€™t available as advertised."

The room was very nice.

The hotel is under massive construction and none of the amenities we booked the hotel for were not available. If we had known this we would have booked elsewhere.

We were given a newly renovated room however we had booked a king suite and was given a queen.

We understand properties need to be renovated however we werenโ€™t told about the renovation until 45 minutes before we were about to arrive on the day of our arrival. We would have liked to have been given the opportunity to decide if we wanted to deal with construction. The shower stall needs to have a shelf to hold shampoo/conditioner/ soap instead of having to put things on the floor of the shower. There was no compensation for receiving a queen suite instead of a king suite. Grab an go breakfast๐Ÿฅฒ, the breakfast in years past was one of the reasons we wanted to come back to this location
