the overall concept of the hotel is excellent. the size and layout of the room is very nice. The Adara is small enough to be nice without being small like a motel. the staff is friendly, helpful and courteous. However, the rooms, facilities, and just in general, its not really clean. Also there are many items that need to be maintained/renovated/replaced. An example of the cleanliness issues is part of the shower control handle was clean, but part of it was actually quite filthy, sticky to the touch! An example of the maintenance/renovation issue is that there are many panels/doors/mouldings that are flaking or coming apart and the "fix" was to just hit them with some white spray paint. These are just examples, there are a few more of each category. Also the parking garage was really disgusting. It was like parking in a downtown back alley inside. And, before you just throw this out as a "nasty" person, this is far from the intent of the review. I like staying there, and the place is so close to being really great. Maybe no one is saying anything?
