To provide an update on this hotel -

Stayed there this past weekend on a $139 rate booked in advance (not prepaid). In accordance with new Sheraton policy, club lounge is not open on weekend. No coupons for breakfast in lieu of lounge.

We arrived to a hotel full of 10-13 year old kids in for a Soccer tournament. 2 elevators worked. I was appreciative to have gotten a 15th floor (top, club) corner room where the attendees were *NOT* staying, but not happy waiting 15 minutes for an elevator to go up or down. The kids were running amuck, often holding those two elevators up. I didn't see a lot of supervision.

As for the property itself, I found it lagging in "Sheraton Charm" a little bit and slightly rough around the edges. Morton's Steakhouse is still there, on the ground floor. The breakfast buffet in Oriole's grill on 2 was pretty good.

The room, on a corner of the 15th floor, was not large at all. Probably about 250 sq. ft at most. I guess the larger upgrades were filled. It was a busy weekend. The room probably hadn't been rennovated in 10+ years. Bathtub was showing it's wear, as was the furniture. No sweet sleeper bed here yet.

Staff was friendly, trying their best to keep up with all those kids.
