10/10 Excellent
"My only complaint and this is just because it was never raining so maybe it was the proximity to the ice machines, was the elevator always seemed dirty. Our room and the hallways were always clean, the lobby was clean, everything else was clean! Staff are super friendly, too. Thank you for making our stay enjoyable!"
