When we were there, only one if the elevators was working and doors to some of the staircases that are fire exits were locked. A worker let us through but it appeared they were using this staircase as a staging area for ongoing renovations. Blocking a fire exit is completely unacceptable. Fires in large buildings like this poorly managing their safety exits could result in many people being trapped inside. There was still drywall tape behind the toilet that had been plastered over. Everything was otherwise extremely clean, and the staff were kind and helpful. Better indicators for overflow parking or signage outside directing traffic because the garage was full would also have been nice. This wouldn't stop me from staying here again, but I'd wait until they are done renovating to give them my business again. Compromising the safety of guests for this was unacceptable, and the wait times at the elevator sometimes exceeded 5 minutes.

The front desk person didn’t know what she was doing. The room wasn’t clean. It’s across the street from a methadone clinic and there was numerous people laying on the property who appeared to be homeless.
