Icemaker was broken on our floor (only one on every odd floor). Room Door frequently jammed and was poorly seated. Room maintenance is non-existent - (unless you request it. Everything is ala cart and a bit pricey. (Crab cakes wee actually pretty good though). Loud music played at 7:00 am throughout the hotel is really pretty annoying.
