My stay at the Galt House had its highs and lows. The hotel has a great location and some nice views, but the service was unfortunately inconsistent and marred by specific issues in our room. While I appreciated the spaciousness, some amenities were lacking, and the parking situation was frustrating. Overall, it wasn't the relaxing experience I hoped for, but there were some bright spots as well.

Rooms
5.0
The rooms were spacious but had several maintenance issues that affected our comfort. We encountered a lack of basic supplies like toilet paper and pillows, which took too long to be addressed.
Service
5.0
The service was hit or miss. While some staff were accommodating, overall responsiveness was lacking, and I felt my concerns were not prioritized as they should have been.
Location
9.0
The location is excellent, right near downtown and close to the YUM Center, which made getting around easy and convenient for our activities.
Dining
8.0
I had a great experience at the hotel restaurant, Walker's Exchange, where the food was quite good, but options felt a bit limited overall.
Facilities
5.0
Facilities like the pool were closed during our stay without prior notice, which was disappointing.
