Not so bad
I was hesitant to book this hotel based on reviews, but decided to take a chance. I love Embassy Suites hotels so I was hoping for the best. Bottom line, there was nothing terribly bad. Yes, there is a major renovation project going on. The hotel website says it’s being renovated through 6/30. I honestly don’t see how they will be done in the next month. They have a lot of work to do. The current state is that everything has been gutted out in atrium and the outside front entrance. 
Parking is limited to half the normal lots size. The rest is sectioned off b/c of the renovation. They do have additional parking next to the second entrance. The main lot was never full and there always seemed to be plenty of parking in the second lot. The entrance to the front drive way is blocked off but they had huge signs with arrows directing traffic which entrance to take. Nothing confusing about parking. 
Checking was quick. Front desk staff was very friendly. We attended the manager’s reception. Lines were pretty long for drinks. There was just one bartender for the time we were there. 
Rooms were clean. Beds were very comfortable. I checked for bed bugs thanks to the last review. No bed bugs in my room. A/C wasn’t too loud. It cooled great and we had a nice, quiet night. 
We planned to go down to the pool but it was pretty busy so we decided to pass. The business center was up and running. There are no restaurants within walking distance. We drove about 7 minutes down the highway for dinner. 
Breakfast was good and the staff did a good job of keeping everything stocked. The omelets were good. There was always a line but the cook did a good job of keeping the lines moving along. 
Overall it was a nice stay. For me, the only drawback of the renovation is there was no place to just sit and have a drink, talk or people watch. I think the hotel staff is making the best of their situation. I hope they are able to get the renovations complete and hopefully things will pick up.
