The hotel was super clean. All staff was welcoming and friendly. Big full breakfast late into the morning was a huge plus. Also an 11 am check out was awesome. We walked through the nature preserve down the street to get to the metro. The walk was gorgeous during spring, though there were a couple shady people, so don’t do it alone. But the met was fairly close about a 15 min walk and we took it to little Italy and walked around the entire downtown area. Great stay.

I'm not one to leave poor reviews but this was frustrating. We checked into our room and the sounds from the nearby freeway were so so loud. I have a daughter with Autism and it bothered her immediately. We were willing to go buy ear plugs for her and try that. However, we quickly realized the reason it was so loud was because the window wasn't closing all the way and was broken. My husband tried repeatedly to get it closed and made a little progress but the metal frame was bent somehow and frankly it just needs replacing I think. I spoke to the front desk and asked
