Good Staff, Lousy Room
We stayed at the Fairmont over the weekend of 6/29/12. Impressive lobby, warmly greeted, overall a good first impression. We had booked a two room suite. Ended up with Room 1101.
 The suite was L shaped. Right next to the elevator banks. Had the pleasure of hearing the swoosh of the elevators rising and falling both nights. Their was only one bathroom. Fixtures in the shower/tub area were pulled away from the wall. Furniture/carpeting has seen better days. The room is needing an upgrade.
The area the hotel is in is somewhat "seedy". Walked around a bit early in the morning and found homeless sleeping in doorways. I would not feel comfortable allowing kids/teenagers exploring on foot in the area of the hotel.
Once again, the most positive experience was the service from the staff. Employees greeted you by name both in the bar or when retrieving your car.
