The room was fine. There was no shampoo or conditioner and when we called the desk, they would not deliver it. The fitness center is small but adequate but very hot. Waited on line at the front desk for 10 minutes until someone came who could turn on the fan.

Such a nice stay!

We had everything we needed, and once we took into account rush hour, we were happy with our location and with our stay. Everything was very quiet and very clean, and it was nice to have everything we needed in the kitchen.

When I checked in, you can clearly see i use a cane, it was myself and a friend two different rooms. She gave my friend the handicap accessible room and me a regular room. Rooms were nice, bldg was very quiet. Everyone was nice. That was the only hiccup.
