Very loud. There were guest rooms on both sides and above us that sounded like it had a WWE match. Lots of running and loud bangs. This was going on to at least 11:30pm. The breakfast in the morning wasn’t great. Not much to choose from. Other than that. The staff/ room/ hotel was great. Very clean.

The room was really spacious and super clean. The staff could not have been any friendlier. The only downside was that the brand new beautiful TV had no network stations programmed. We tried several different ways to get news and TV show and a staff member even tried with no avail. Usually we can get local stations and there’s typically a laminated channel list. Otherwise it was perfect!
