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.

Menu was fresh, good; parking was close; help with luggage was good; however, the heater did not work, even when they said it would--was loud and noisy and did not adjust temperature so I couldn't sleep, and that's a bummer. They need to update All of the older heaters; is not fair to the guests/clients who can't sleep.
