Stayed on 11th floor. HVAC on roof was incredibly loud. Not sure if it was because it was cold and snowing but it kept us up all night.

The hotel was under renovation. We were given a room on a newly renovated floor. There was a strong smell of paint and new carpet, causing allergies. The soap dispenser didn't work. Not much hot vegetarian choices for breakfast. Elevators took long time as one of the two elevators was being used by the workers doing the renovation....

The room was clean, staff was extremely friendly. They had two different times to come to our rooms to drop off items that we needed. The front desk was super helpful. Only issue we didn't have housekeeping, clean the room, our choice, we did run out of toilet paper and it took a while to get a new role because housekeeping is not on site overnight. They just need to keep some in the office. Other than that all good.
