The room was exceptionally clean. Great water pressure. Lots of free breakfast selections to choose from. Down pillows are flat, bed is comfortable. Didn't hear any other guests when I was in my room, but if you have a room on the backside of the hotel during high school football season you will feel like you're at the game. You will hear the announcer, band and crowd. Game was over by 930pm.
