Laura

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was outstanding, but lots of traffic noise and the elevators were the loudest elevators ai have ever encountered in a hotel. Our room was not next to the elevator and the elevator noise still woke both of us. If you are a light sleeper, be sure you are all the way at the end of the hall away from the elevators.
