Make no mistake, this is a 3.5 star hotel only. Its not a 4 or a 3.9, its a solid 3.5. But the breakfast was good and the gym was nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful and you can walk to a lot of places from there. There was no trashcan in the kitchen area. But the room was clean and the bathrooms weren't scary.

It started great with them allowing us to check in around 10am. All we did was leave our bags in our room and left for the day. We didn't return until 11pm, to find several people wondering around in the atrium and about 10-12 people going in and out of the room next to ours slamming the door. There was also trash and sheets outside of several rooms in piles. As we tried to ignore the ruckus and shower but the shower was backed up. So i went down to reception to swap our room. The Staff was helpful and switched our room, room was in better shape and shower was good. But, the ruckus continued as I write this review at 1:25am. there's yelling in the Atrium and a crowd of about 9-10 people out in the courtyard. I advised the security guard twice that there was a party or a gathering going on and nothing was done. Disappointing stay and going to look into getting a refund. I will also be reaching out to corporate.

Recommend this hotel. Nice room condition and kind staff. Separate room and living area is useful. Sofa is good to sit but when sleeping, I think this sofa needs to change spring on. Little bit goes down when sleeping

The walls in the rooms are very thin so you could hear talking and loud voices. The quiet time was not observed. Loud and fast cars on the street in front. The gym water machine was not clean and there was no sanitizer or cloths to clean the equipment. Service staff were friendly on and off.

The stay was good. Clean room, decent breakfast and friendly staff. The downside of this hotel is there is no free parking. All parking is valet and it costs $53 a day. Aside from that, everything went well.
