Property is undergoing renovations so expect noise, esp on lower levels. We were on 7th floor and the work starts at 8am. We had ADA room with odd configuration. It’s awkward to get into the bathroom with a rollator. The bathroom door is so wide that it just about touches the opposite hallway wall. Otherwise room was fine though on the small side. Staff was courteous. Very convenient location.

The front desk staff were very nice. The parking garage was a huge disappointment. We paid extra to park our car for two nights, there was no parking and the attendant was rude to us. The area was nice and convenient.

The room was clean and staff was friendly. It's a bit of an outdated hotel. Their elevators weren't working properly and had to take the stairs several times.
