The hotel needs some work. Based of the high rating Expedia suggested, I was a bit disappointed. The room needs a new bed, updating of the furniture, the light above the door was burnt out, and the handle on the glass door to the shower was half attached. The pool area was propped open since the key card reader may be broken, the pool area was cold because or this and so was the pool itself.Also, the street noise is pretty bad. I was on the 4th floor and I could hear conversations and the vehicle traffic is very loud.

The room was dirty. The floor was disgusting, we moved the ottoman to the couch and there was food underneath it. The sofa bed was gross. Furniture was dated and best up.

The good: convenient and clean location and breakfast had ample options and was kept tidy. The bad: one of the night lights by the bed did not work, the shower water was very cold at 715am and wouldn’t warm up, the outlet in the TV stand kept tripping off whenever I tried using the iron or coffee maker, and finally, I had the Do Not Disturb placard hanging outside of my door but housekeeping still knocked and woke me up while I was sleeping.
