6/10 Good

Room was spotlessly clean, staff were fine, but room was small and cramped, and there was a weird intermittent sewer-y smell in the bathroom. Also irritating that they insisted on valet parking for an extra $35 a night, plus tips, when the lot is right beside the hotel and easy to get into and out of. Soundproofing of rooms was also not great, and they had added a white noise machine to compensate
