We appreciated the size of the superior suite as there were 3 of us. The room had what we needed and we appreciated the free parking, easy check in and great breakfast. Unfortunately the rooms are not great with sound as we were all awakened at 5:30am by hammering which went on until 6am. Called the front desk to see if they could stop the disruption but didn’t get a response.
