This room was really nice, the restroom was a bit small, but the staff was super friendly. There’s no central ac, but it does get super cold at night with the ac unit in the room. Even though we got a room with highway noise for the view, we hardly heard any noise. The windows were incredible for that. The bed was the best part of this room and the tv had streaming services. Overall, the stay was perfect for where we needed to go as it was literally close to everything we needed to visit.

Disliked: Amenities

The location is the reason I stayed there. It’s a great location. The room was clean. Unfortunately, the gym isn’t satisfactory. The machine wasn’t working properly and it didn’t feel clean. There was an issue all 3 mornings with the coffee including broken machines or dirty pot or no pods. You really have to include parking because there’s a lot of construction going on nearby and parking spots are limited.
