Breakfast didn’t start until 7:30 and we had to leave by 7 and the office wasn’t open yet but there was a staff person sitting in a car by the office. Never experienced that before. Was a bit noisy and was in a very busy part of town. Parking was a little difficult and far from our room. It was clean though."
