I would not stay here again. The rooms were average. There was no in room microwave and the shower was luke warm at best. Had maintenance come look at it, was even colder after that. No glass glasses. For the price range this hotel was not worth it.

Let me start by saying the hotel was pretty clean and staff kind and I am not a person that complains. When we arrived at the hotel, we had to park in the parking garage, which was my oversight that it was $45 per day. The garage was smelly and so much garbage laying around. There should be a better option for parking especially for $45/ night. The room, the air conditioning was so incredibly loud I did not sleep for the three nights I was there. When it was off all you could hear was the concert in the venue next door. There were also dirty hand prints on the ceiling. Also, our cards deactivated 4x causing us to have to go to the lobby and reactivate our cards. The area around the hotel was so dirty annd smelly and there was a HUGE homeless population all around the hotel. This was supposed to be a time for us to relax from our very busy schedules and I will be going home very tired and not well rested.
