The AC unit or something was making the floor in my room vibrate. I didnt say anything because I could not feel it or hear it when i was in bed with my hearing aids off. The bed was lumpy and had pits, but i slept ok. It wasnt worth the inflated price i paid, but kind of had to make due. Could have been worse.

Room was very small. Very loud traffic noise. Make sure you get a room at the backside of the hotel. Breakfast was not great. We had no hot water for an afternoon and evening. They were rebating monies for people who booked directly with the hotel but wouldn’t do anything for us because we booked through Expedia.

Check in was unfriendly. Zero eye contact. However, it was fast and efficient. Room had no microwave, no coffee. No laundry bags in room. Very, very much over priced for the value received.
