Dear David, Thank you for choosing us for your time in the city and for your feedback. We hope your overall stay was satisfactory. However, we apologize for the issues you had with the lack of hot water in your room. Although we are confident that this is an isolated incident, this in no way excuses the fact that we failed to provide you with better customer service. We have also taken note of your additional feedback regarding the hair dryer. In the future, please know our front desk is always available to assist you and make the most of your visit. We appreciate your patience and hope to have another opportunity to provide you with the outstanding hospitality you deserve.Keith Hoogerheyde, General Manager

To loud to sleep, resting is important when on a trip and we didn’t rest much. Rooms on the side of building with the club should not be rented if your guests will be kept up most of the night by loud music. It was awful.

We were put in a room accross from a very noisy (Loud Music) business that the hotel knew about. We had to ask to be moved but clerk was clearly put out by having to do so. We were asked to hang a parking pass in our car but we were NEVER told about the cost to park. $20.00 insane. This is not a big city like NY where you expect this cost. Either way, cost should have been disclosed and $20.00 per night was highway robbery.
