Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Like: Management was friendly, responsive,helpful. Property was clean. Location was prime for shopping, dining. Cabinets were stocked with plenty of glasses, plates, silverware. Dislike: The inside lighting was too dim. Maybe because of my advanced years. No bathroom exhaust fan. Would not hesitate to stay here in the future.

NO SLEEP LOUD AS HELL
Loudest place I have ever stayed its currently 430 am and i have been up since 330 when the slamming and pounding started. Not sure if someone just came in or is getting ready to leave but its completely ridiculous. We are on the top floor so must be people behind us. I understand thin walls but this is too much. Maybe let late coming or early rising guests know to try and be respectful because it sounds like they are coming through the walls....very disappointed.
