Time to reboot
I should have known there was going to be a problem when there was no where to pull up to drop off your bags nor was there anyone there to take them. The hotel is in a great location and looks like it might have been a great hotel in the past. At this point, it is need of a major overhaul. The dark lobby, the dingy brass fixtures and tatty carpets all contribute to a bad overall feel. I don't mean to imply the hotel is dirty, it's just very tired. The rooms are relatively small and are very worn. The bathroom is clean, but looks like it belongs in a 1970s motel. 
There is no staff other than the front desk and housekeeping. No bellhop to take your bags. You place your own bags in storage, which seems that it could be a bit of a security problem. The parking is close by, but you have to walk around the block to get from the deck to the hotel entrance. Not very convenient with more than 1 or 2 bags.
I'm in need of some assistance since I am mobility impaired and have great difficulty climbing stairs. The task almost becomes impossible with a bag. There is a wheelchair lift, but I couldn't even get the door open when I tried to operate the unit. Anyway, I get to the front steps and ask the person at the desk for some assistance. She informs me that she cannot leave the desk. I ask her what she expects me to do, to which there is no reply Thankfully, another staff member offered to help, but it seemed like she was doing me a big favor. I don't normally make a big deal about my disability, but I don't need to made to feel like I'm a burden.
The conference facilities were OK. The ceilings were dirty and the equipment was marginal at best. The seating was awful unless you managed to get a swivel chair. The food was awful, though it's not clear the hotel was the food provider. The reception room was marginal at best and offered a very institutional feel.
Next time, I will trust the Tripadvisor rankings. If this is number 67, I would hate to see the bottom 7.
