Great place to stay

Room was extremely clean and staff was very professional and helpful. Overall experience was great. The only negative was the noise. Our room was on the 3rd floor and we heard the people upstairs walking or stomping at all hours, to the point of waking us up from dead sleep. There is no carpeting in the rooms which I love but something needs to be done to reduce the noise impact.
