Adequate Stay, Some Issues Present

The location was useful. It allowed simple access to several attractions downtown.

The room was not up to par.. The cooling system made odd noises throughout the night. I found the breakfast selection very limited, offering few choices beyond basic carbs.

A Grateful Guest Experience

attentive staffgood breakfastloud aircondition

I was pleased with the attentiveness of the staff . Alisha at check-in was very helpful and Ron and Uzair were also helpful. Breakfast was substantial and gave me a good start each day. The location was central to the major sports venues.

I found the room was small, and the air conditioning unit was loud. it was right next to one of the beds. I unplugged the air conditioning because it was not easy to regulate. There also seemed to be noise from the street.
