Room was clean comfy, and quiet, the front desk employees were friendly, check in and out was easy and quick, and the breakfast was above and beyond. Lots of options - even soy milk in the fridge. Would definitely stay again. Sign up front apologized for the renovations happening, and we saw some outside of a building near ours, but they were honestly pretty quiet and out of the way.
