"It was a nice room. We got upgraded to a suite with a view of the parking lot but we enjoyed the extra space! The only problem I had was with the air conditioning squeaking when it would run which kept me awake the first night. I almost asked to change rooms but I noticed other people had put a piece of paper in the unit and it made it stop the squeaking."
