State Street Adjacent

While the property felt a little retro motel-like, it was clean and comfortable. The pool area was great and the service was good. It is on a busy street, so there was some auto noise transference as the room doors are in exterior hallways.

A terrible night of sleep

The listing featured 'Blackout curtains' which is important to me, but the curtain barely covered the window, and a light just outside the window not only came into the room, but was reflected in an adjacent mirror. So the light kept poking me in the eyes all night long. Also the bed was extremely firm and very uncomfortable to me. The pillows were all too mushy. All of these things left me with a wretched night of poor sleep. I will not waste money or time at this hotel again.

The housekeeping staff slam all of the doors when they are maintaining the rooms. I was woken up by doors slamming and this continued all morning. I used the jacuzzi before I checked out and I saw the housekeeping staff slamming the doors as they went from room to room. I believe they must be trying to wake people up to make the check out time but this is really unreasonable and inappropriate.
