Convenient for overnight

All was good for a quick overnight trip. The only negative was the $14.95 per person breakfast option that didn’t look worth the price.

The hot water was off for more than half the day. They never provided a timeframe that it would be fixed. My wife and I had to tough out a cold shower before leaving for our event. To make matters worse the 2nd elevator was broke when we had to leave. Had to take the stairs and walk around the building to the parking garage. 1st elevator was down for maintenance our entire stay!
