I travel a lot, and I choose a hotel based upon views and the room layout out. This was not the premium King room that I seen online. The shower door does not close all the way, so the floor is soaking wet while taking a shower. You can hear everything upstairs above me as well as next to me not satisfied at all with my stay or the room, I haven't slept since I've got here because you can hear everything through the walls and footsteps running across the ceiling all night this is not what I seen Online as a premium king room and not what I expected. You walk in you smell marijuana throughout the hallways and on the elevator this place is not what I expected at all. I'm very underwhelm.
