I had the pleasure to stay at the Kelly on my travels for work. I was impressed with the genuine interactions with the valet service and front desk staff. All the valets greeted me with a smile and all around just exceptional service. Micah whom was my first encounter was so informative and I walked away knowing I choose the right spot to stay for the busy work week.

The hotel advertised breakfast however no breakfast was served by 8:00 a.m. The bar advertised hours of service until 10:00 pm, the bar was close before 10:00. The ice machine was out of order. I probably would not go there again.

Althea and another young lady at the front desk were excellent. The manager of the breakfast area was superb as well. Will be back next year for my 3rd straight year. Parking guys were the best!

We stopped into this hotel as part of a longer trip to break up the drive. We thought we’d book a nice room and get a relaxing night before continuing our drive the next day. That is not what happened. When we got to the front desk we were not greeted by the front desk staff because they were on a FaceTime call. When we were eventually acknowledged we gave our name and we were directed to a card reader to pay $50. Incidentals I assume but I wouldn’t know for sure because nothing was communicated to us. We weren’t told check out time or able to ask any questions because the staff was on a personal FaceTime call the entire time. I attempted to ask a different staff member about an ice machine and was told “through there” and pointed in a general direction and never found the ice machine. Wish I could say the room was better but it was so stuffy when we walked in with zero air circulation. The bathroom was not clean and the sheets were too small for the bed. If we weren’t so tired we would have gone somewhere else. I would never stay here again.

The hotel, the room, the staff were all wonderful. A HUGE shoutout to Ms. Althea who was graciously managing the desk and prepared us a delicious breakfast.
Also, Dorian, the gentleman at the door was a huge help and quite helpful finding local coffee houses and bars.
