They have blackout blinds and a walk in shower which was great for me. One of the easiest checkouts I’ve had. Great price, but I would recommend ..."

"Hotel was very nice. Staff was a bit…snobby at times. AC in the rooms would not stay on and led to a hot, uncomfortable sleep, especially with the heavy down comforters. The city is full of construction, especially in the area around the hotel. Overall a nice facility, with some blemishes with service ..."

"Directions on the whole parking and check in process need to be a little shorter. There was no tv in the master bedroom, despite the fact that there are pics of a tv online.
