The Milo

Travelocity Verified Review

"The property is in a nice and convenient location, and the overall setup is quite pleasant. The room itself was clean and well-maintained. However, there were significant noise issues that affected our stay. We were assigned a first-floor room next to the ice machine, and the noise was quite disruptive. We could clearly hear people walking upstairs, and the ice machine itself was extremely loud, especially late at night and early in the morning. For a rate of $450 per night, this level of noise was not what I expected and made it difficult to rest comfortably."
