It was just ok…
The room was clean and comfortable. We booked two rooms and at 10am there was only warm water to take a shower…in both rooms. Our refrigerator wasn’t working in one of the rooms. It was a crowded weekend… right before New Years. Only one elevator worked and the only floor with a workable ice maker was on the 5th floor. We were on the 2nd floor .

Treated poorly during room change.
I had to change rooms past 2 AM for a neighbor who played TV at full volume and did not respond to calls or knocks from hotel staff or me. The hotel staff only offered a new room once I asked to speak to a manager. I was exhausted and I asked for the option to keep the key to the original room until morning to be sure nothing was left behind. Clearly the room was not going to be used until morning. No, I was told. I. pajamas my daughter, wife packed up and moved. I was then watched over as I did the sweep of the room half asleep and asked to return the key immediately. I asked if I could consult with my wife and daughter, now in bed in the new room, and return the key to the desk. No, I was told. The manager would wait outside and take the keycard when I emerged from the room. Overall, I felt I was treated as if I did something wrong and given no courtesy while another guest was allowed to blast their TV non-stop without consequences. I was given a $75 credit but I would have preferred to have been offered a room change immediately, greater courtesy and flexibility regarding holding the key until morning.

When this Archer was still the Lorien it was my home away from home. I enjoy my staycations. Some things have changed and improved while others did not. I did enjoy my time at the spa. Its such a great amenity. I wish room service was open earlier but other than that the food and service is great. I'll recommend Archer for sure. Thanks for everything Archer!

The property was recently acquired by another company. Restaurant and bar was closed. Too many added charges, room was 276.00 per night, stayed two nights and the total cost was around $900.00. BIG SHOCK. The valet was very good and the bed was very comfortable.
