Hotel was nice. Lobby nice and clean felt safe with security on site! Staff were friendly. The room it self was clean the bathroom could have used some extra TLC. The plumbing was a little off the pipes were knocking when the toilet above me or flushed. And the toilets was slow to flush. The shower was good great pressure.
