Hotel has a good location but I will not be returning. They have two giant lobbies with no seating so if your travel times do not align with check in you end up standing around or sitting on the floor. I find it strange that hotel lobbies usually have comfortable seating areas so you can meet people there or wait for your car but nothing here. You cannot control the temperature in your room so the heat was constantly on and you can only crack the window a little bit. The hallways smelled like smoke too. On the other hand the employees were very helpful and they do keep the hotel very clean. The bedding was very comfortable but it is very noisy. You can hear everyone around you including the water and vacuum above. The coffee shop right downstairs was excellent.

The level of customer service was excellent. A full staffed foyer, a helper at hand in every area, you just don’t get that level of service these days. Really, really great stay.
