The location, food, and staff were amazing, but we paid for a garden view room that was not really a garden view. It was tucked inside and all windows looked out onto some Astro turf on a roof or the AC or whatever machinery was there. Said machinery was incredibly loud throughout the night. All in all we probably would not stay here again. For the price it’s just not worth it.

We have stayed at Birchwood in the past quite a few times. The last time we noticed the property had gone down hill. The shower basically trickled and the lighting is very dim in the bathroom. The mattresses need replaced also. We had hoped things had been improved but it was not the case. The shower barely sprayed and the lighting is still very dim in the bathroom.

2/10 Terrible

Jennifer

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room is unacceptable under any circumstances, but especially given what we paid - so bad that we checked out a few hours after checking in. We were told the manager would call us but no one has contacted us as of about 3 weeks after. Trash was left in the room. The view outside every window was of some sort of mechanical equipment. There was noise from an event space right outside one window and from an unknown source outside another window on the other side of the room. The TV remote didn't work and neither did the thermostat.

I had no maid service for the 2 nights I was there. The front desk clerk also serves as the valet. The breakfast was cereal, and some items to toast ( in other words don't bother). I believe someone was in my room who wasn't the maid. When I arrived back around 4 pm, a Do Not Disturb sign was on my door and my key would not work. I went back to the front desk to get the key "fixed". I was gone maybe 5 minutes. When I got back, the Do Not Disturb sign was OFF my door. I believe someone was in my room, had disabled my key so I could not enter, heard me try my key in the door, and left the room, and put the do not disturb sign inside the door when I went to the front desk. I would have thought maybe the maid had put the do not disturb sign outside the room, but I had no maid service at any time during my visit. It was a very noisy room as I had windows on 3 sides. Friday night there were people partying outside the window. Saturday morning I was awaken at 7 am due to dumpsters being emptied.

Liked the property overall. Service was excellent. Staff was friendly. Negatives were very loud HVAC motor and the lighting in the room which was rather dim. Overall we’d stay there again.

The hotel itself is lovely, and in a prime location. During my stay, I had the pleasure of interacting with JESSICA and SIERRA, who were both friendly, helpful, and genuinely wonderful. They went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of. Unfortunately, it seems that there is only one staff member handling multiple responsibilities, including check-in, check-out, valet, and room service. This was not an isolated incident, as I encountered the same situation during my previous visit last month. For a hotel with rates ranging from $400 to $600 per night, this staffing model is quite concerning. In summary, the hotel is a beautiful place with outstanding staff, but the management should take steps to address the staffing issues to enhance the overall guest experience.
