limited parking
i was a bit disappointed. the noise started early each morning and continued throughout the day, disrupting any chance of a peaceful rest. also, finding parking was a nightmare, i spent a lot of time circling the area trying to find a spot.

underwhelming and somewhat disappointing

friendly staffstained carpetsunken beds
the cleaning staff was friendly, a small positive.
I stayed one night and felt misled by the ratings. They must be inflated. the room had stains on the carpet and in the bathroom, and the beds were uncomfortably sunken. there was a phone number for assistance, but they argued when i needed help with the room information and parking.
