The floor I stayed on was super noisy!!! There were parties going on Friday and Saturday nights and I had to call security. They would stop for a little and then start up again. I was not able to get any sleep! I did go down to reservation desk on Saturday after not sleeping all night and asked them to change my room if the people next door were not checking out. I was told they were checking out that day. That Saturday night, the same thing happened. Party all night! The on Sunday morning all I heard were slamming doors! I was exhausted all weekend. What a way to spend Mother's Day weekend.

The room was as expected, clean and the bathroom clean too. The bed was comfortable and having coffee downstairs was convenient enough. However, very few amenities in the room. We asked downstairs for an extra blanket b/c the room was so cold and no one brought it as promised. There was also a weird alarm sound going constantly on low dull tones. And there was weird spots of tried paint (not sure?) on the floor when we got back to our room after room service came. Otherwise sufficient.

These rooms are likely ideal for one person. For two larger adults the space is awkward/uncomfortable. The staff was great and immediately responded to all my requests.

This was a great location and very clean with friendly staff. Our only issue was that the A.C didn’t seem to want to get cold enough but we opened the window and it was fine. Small rooms were cozy and just what we needed for a place for 2 people to sleep. Would definitely stay here again!
