Hotel Murano

8/10 Good

"THE ROOM WAS VERY NICE, CLEAN AND THE VIEW WAS AMAZING. HOWEVER, I DID NOT EXPECT TO HAVE TO PAY ($30) FOR PARKING AFTER PAYING OVER $300 FOR A ROOM, WHY WOULD THAT NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE PRICE OF THE ROOM? THE CONCERGIE ROOM ON 25TH FLOOR ONLY HAD A COUPLE OF FIG BARS AND GRANOLA BAR; HOW OFTEN IS THIS ROOM REPLENISHED? THE ICE MACHINE DOES NOT WORK, SO HAD TPO GO DOWN TO NEXT FLOOR TO GET ICE. TRIED TO CALL THE FRONT DESK, I FINALLY HUNG UP AFTER 10 RINGS WITH NO ANSWER, SAME THING WITH THE FOOD BUTTON ON PHONE. TRIED TO GET ROOM SERVICE, WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT PROVIDE IT EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE A RESTAURANT. THE ELEVATOR MAKES CLICKING NOISE ALL NIGHT LONG."

This is a shared house so there are animals and people around you very homey. All individuals and pets were very welcoming but had boundaries. You have your own room and bathroom/shower. You are welcome to share kitchen living room and outdoor space Coffee was made in am and breakfast items are available to eat, you can even use the washing machine and dryer. We enjoyed our short time there due to the homey, friendly free spirited atmosphere"
