Free WiFi was still in place and Provenance was working hard to get the renovations back on track at both the &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Frank/local/698&#x22;&#x3E;Hotel Vertigo&#x3C;/a&#x3E; and the &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Vertigo/local/1366&#x22;&#x3E;Hotel Frank&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. Yet things were not as copacetic as we thought.&#x3C;p&#x3E;Provenance has been tussling with employees of the three hotels (including Hotel Metropolis) over increased workloads and slashed employee benefits.

(Which is also now managing the <b><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Metropolis/local/1792">Hotel Metropolis</a></b>.)<p> Our most pressing question, of course, was had the hotels retained any of their personality?
