I stayed here a few months ago. It was a pretty decent experience:

I went on the weekend so I got a certificate for breakfast. I think it was worth $20 and easily covered my meal and coffee. It's in an area of town that is more business and residential in focus so as others have noted, it's pretty dead after a certain time. That said, there are a few cute restaurants that are within walking distance.

As for an upgrade - I got the regular club floor upgrade. Got a regular King room the first time near the elevator; the door lock lost power and needed new batteries so they put me in another King room a floor lower also near the elevator. This is clearly a first world, Platinum problem. In fact, it was only notable since everyone at the front desk noted that the hotel was empty and I was one of the few guests. It was quiet though, and the room was comfortable and the staff was warm.
