The building is undergoing renovation and it needs it. The WiFi kept kicking us off. One elevator is down and the other doesn’t light up or ding. There is a fire alarm in the hall that chirps constantly that the staff is unable to fix. That said the staff was responsive and helpful and breakfast was ample and had lots of variety.
