There is live music playing so loud I can hear it in my room over the TV , the staff couldn’t be any slower or careless. WOW never again . No perks to being a gold honors member. They used to give you a cookie and a water . Now they point to where the elevator. No more valet . Horrible.

Instant hot water in the shower was great. Hotel was very good. Outside was very loud when the bars closed. Motorcycles revving engines, sirens, people… but that’s not the hotel’s fault.

The only positive thing about this hotel is its good location. Unfortunately, the room had a strong musty smell that triggered my allergies, and the air conditioner was so loud it sounded like a motorcycle. Honestly, I don’t understand why this place is rated as excellent it feels more like a low-quality hotel.

Decent hotel for the price

I never could get my digital key even though the desk attendant said she could make it work. No welcome gift, which we usually get. Luckily we were there on a weekend because parking is pricey. The mattress was horrible and needs to be replaced immediately. The breakfast was excellent and the employee very nice and helpful. It was also very quiet which is a plus,
