"We picked this hotel for a one-night stay because of its proximity to friends and its excellent reviews. The staff was great - very friendly and helpful, especially the valet staff and front desk personnel. The hotel lobby felt very modern and boutique-y, which was nice but I was less impressed with the room. For one, the hotel was pushing us to buy wine, snacks, and even bottled water… everywhere I looked, there were items for sale. I guess this could be considered a “convenience” but I would have appreciated some free water. The bed was soooo comfortable and had great pillows. The rest of the furniture seemed cheap, though, and the A/C barely kept up with the unseasonably warm day/evening. Granted, we like it like an icebox but I don’t think the room got below 70. The bathroom was clean but the shower was pretty pitiful. Don’t get me wrong - it’s a nice hotel, comfortable and clean. But there are probably nicer ones out there for the price."

"The room was nice, a little small for what I was expecting. We booked a king room with a balcony. There were limited amenities in the room, super small mini fridge. We had to pay an extra $75 a night for potential damages, which would be nice to know before booking a non refundable room. We also did not get any room service until the last night we were there. They left us 2 towels in the hotel room, two towels for two people for two nights.. the hotel property itself is nice, with the two restaurants. The breakfast at the restaurant was gross but it was a cute place. I probably wouldn’t stay again. "

"Very clean, friendly staff and convenient location. "

"It was amazing "

"The Mark Spencer is not what it was. We have stayed here I think four times and the most recent visit likely will be our last. First kudos to the staff for being solicitous and very helpful. However our room was not cleaned well. We found an old soap wrapper in the bathroom, some lost headphones under the bed, and a spent coffee packet in the coffee maker filter basket. We didn't dare use any of the mugs or glasses in the room, some of which were visible dirty. Apparently the booking included a bottle of wine, which no one offered us. We didn't miss it but the principle of the matter is indicative. The breakfast options were nice to have but would have been better if the advertised fresh fruit had been available. We enjoyed a tasty breakfast sandwich but received it on an English muffin instead of the requested croissant. Not a huge deal but again, indicative of the attention being paid to details. Top notch drip coffee from Peru and a very good espresso helped. From check in to check out the staff uniformly were helpful and courteous. John greeted us out front upon arrival and when he learned that we were running late he most graciously helped us get our bags to our room, as we had to park across the street due to the garage being full. Easy parking which was nice. It saddens me to see what was a home-away-from-home fail to meet the standards we used to appreciate at this handsome old hotel."

"The lobby, bar, and other common areas are very nice and clean. The rooms have everything that you need in them. And the elevators are super efficient and fast even when it felt like a lot of people were going up and down. If you do self parking, it is just around the corner maybe a 50 yd walk. Just keep that in mind."

"Nice for a quick stay, thats about it."

"Clean room, no frills but comfy and warm. "

"Staff were so nice, and so welcoming also very helpful with explaining where things were. The spa was so relaxing and the ROOM was BEAUTIFUL. I got the sky loft and even the laundry was complimentary. They have you pay for parking in the lot next door. But you’re not guaranteed to have a spot when you get back because apparently it’s open to the public as well? That was confusing and didn’t understand why there was a needed fee."
