Room was great, clean and had all the amenities we needed except body lotion. We had to leave for the hospital before breakfast. The front desk staff at check in, after 7PM, was not very friendly.

Hotel was definitely not worth the cost. Maybe the price was boosted higher because of the Chris Brown concert? Front desk lady ( don’t remember her name) was awesome.
