Nice clean cold rooms. Comfy bed. Couldn’t hear any noise. Not sure why we have to pay $10 for parking in garage when room was $200?

Our primary concern was cleanliness, and the hotel is very clean. The staff are courteous and efficient. On the other hand, the sound control in our room needs improvement. In our room, I could clearly hear guests speaking and laughing in another room, and a television in a third room. The hotel is doing renovations, so maybe they haven’t done this floor yet. Oh, and there should be a toilet paper holder in the bathroom.
