Like
many
have
said,
this
hotel
is
due
for
a
major
refresh,
especially
as
a
Regency
hotel
and
for
customers
paying
Regency
prices.
We
checked
into
a
king
room
but
had
to
be
switched
to
a
double
twin
room
because
the
door
to
our
room
would
not
lock
with
the
keycard--hence
the
door
was
always
unlocked.
The
front
desk
employee
at
first
said
they
would
send
a
mechanic
up,
but
then
had
us
switch
rooms
because
the
mechanic
reported
the
issue
earlier
in
the
day
and
there
were
no
high
floor
king
rooms
available.
While
we
were
provided
with
the
difference
between
the
room
costs
as
compensation,
it
felt
disappointing
to
be
sold
a
room
that
was
reported
to
have
issues
and
be
provided
with
a
downgrade
instead
of
an
upgrade
for
our
stay.
Many
have
mentioned
the
aging
state
of
the
hotel
and
I
can
confirm
that
the
hotel
still
needs
renovations.
As
we
walked
down
the
halls,
of
the
hotel,
it
was
worrying
to
see
how
many
rooms
and
elevators
had
keycard
locks
with
the
plastic
cover
missing
or
falling
off,
exposing
the
operating
board
within--this
made
it
seem
like
the
keycard
systems
were
very
cheap
and/or
insecure.
Hallway
carpets
on
several
floors
have
the
faded
white
stains
reported
by
other
reviewers
(thankfully
the
rooms
were
clean
and
did
not
have
carpet
stains),
the
shower
faucet
had
extremely
low
water
pressure,
and
our
room
had
large
sections
of
scratches
on
our
window
tint
which
ruined
the
otherwise
great
view.
The
bottom
of
the
windowsill
in
our
room
had
specks
of
rust
as
well.
The
only
redeeming
quality
of
this
hotel
was
the
kindness
and
hospitality
of
the
staff
and
the
cleanliness
of
the
rooms.
Everyone
we
interacted
with
was
super
helpful
and
tried
to
resolve
any
issues
we
had
quickly.
This
Hyatt
Regency
has
a
fantastic
location
and
great
staff,
but
is
limited
by
its
aging
interior
and
issues
with
rooms.
I
would
hesitate
to
stay
again
unless
the
price
is
competitive
with
a
3-star
or
2-star
hotel
like
hilton/springhill.
Otherwise,
there
are
seemingly
many
better
4-star
hotels
in
the
area,
albeit
maybe
without
as
great
of
a
view
of
inner
harbor.
