8/10 Very good

The hotel room was nice and clean. However, there was an issue with young adults knocking on doors and making a ton of noise. After about 2 hours of this nonsense, staff did finally confront the situation but there was no sleep that night and when we left the room in the early morning, there was stuff hanging on the doors(hangers and notes) and paper and coffee creamer pods all over our hallway. That being said, I would try again because it was obnoxious people not the hotel itself

2/10 Poor

Front desk staff was rude and unwelcoming. The second women I spoke to was way more pleasant. Room was okay but the walls are thin, I heard word for word conversations. From 10pm to midnight kids ran around the halls screaming, banging on doors, and tried to get into multiple rooms, including mine. I ended up packing up and leaving at 4am. Miserable stay!
