Liked: Cleanliness
The room was smaller than expected but adequate and clean. The person checking us in was pleasant and professional but it was a bad look that we were waiting to check in and their was a second employee sitting behind the counter browsing on their phone. Maybe they weren't working check-in but never acknowledged us. The TV kept connecting and disconnecting to its wired connection and sometimes resulted in dropping our program off. There wasn't any coffee made in the afternoon although two employees were in the area. The second floor ice machine didn't work. The shampoo was empty in the shower. When I went to the 1st floor to get ice I was approached by an employee who rudely asked which room I was in. I didn't check-in on line because it showed $10 for parking even though the reservation said complimentary parking (there was no charge). I asked for a receipt at check-out and was told Expedia would send it then when I checked my bank there was an unexpected charge that was supposed to be a credit. The person from customer service was excellent in correcting it.

I loved the space. It was more modern, and the room design was cool. Also, the staff from the front desk (Shane) to the bartender (Mhelea) (I definitely spelled that wrong) Were so helpful and great to talk to!
