Having a key to get to your floor was such a good feeling of security. Rooms were exceptional. Only issue was the parking garage. Several times we had to stop SUDDENLY for cars that just driving too fast. Speed bumps might help that issue in time

I would have given higher rating, but the internet went down the first day and never came back up. The pillows were so uncomfortable and hard I had to sleep without one. The furniture wasn’t too comfortable either.
