My room was absolutely beautiful and clean except for the bathroom floor. It was sticky so I used one of the washcloths to mop it and when I got done, it was filthy. The elevator floor was just as nasty. The outside could be power washed and cleaned. Other than cleanliness that I’ve mentioned, this hotel was worth the price. It is only a half mile from the convention center and 2/10 of a mile from the city center. Absolutely beautiful room though. Be sure to book a room here.
