Overall, I had a nice stay. The staff was helpful and very professional. I did have a small issue with the plumbing. Apparently, while I was gone during the day, water backed up through the sink and overflowed onto the floor to the point that it reached the carpet just outside the bathroom. As I was checking out the next morning and needed to get to bed right away, I let the staff know, but declined a maintenance call. I feel confident that they will have resolved the issue after I checked out, and this would not affect my staying with them in the future.

I usually request a room on second floor due to being trapped in their elevator 5 yrs ago. But there was a wedding & the wanted to buffer the noises; it worked out OK.
