Main entrance blocked by smokers! Disgusting!
The Sheraton on 6th has a lot going for it. First is the great location, it's really convenient for downtown and the convention center is right next door. Views from the upper floors are spectacular. Rooms and floor lobbies however are a little dated and are sadly in need a remodel. The carpet on the 27th floor lobby was absolutely filthy and full of stains. Our room was very stuffy with poor ventilation and quite noisy with doors slamming constantly outside.
However, the worst part of our stay was having to run the gauntlet of all the smokers who congregate on the steps of the main entrance to the hotel, filling the MAIN entrance with cigarette smoke! Totally disgusting and unacceptable in this day and age.
The problem could easily be fixed with a couple of "smoking not allowed in this area" signs and proper monitoring by a doorman.
Management however seems to be turning a blind eye to the problem by allowing the smokers to pollute the entrance. We absolutely hated coming back to this hotel for this reason.
