The hotel was nice and has a restaurant and bar serving excellent food. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. No complaints there. My only complaint is that because this hotel is close to the sports arena the clientele of the hotel can be noisy and rowdy in the hall when coming home late at night. We were on the 3rd floor and it was quite noisy sometimes until 2:00 AM. Our friends were on a higher floor and did not experience this. I would stay again… but upgrade / request a room on a higher floor.
