Room was great and staff were fine. Place was quiet. The only problem we had was our smoke alarm battery started to beep every 30 seconds at about 1 am. We took battery out but this did not stop problem as it was hard-wired. We called night manager, but they could not locate a battery so we had to move to another room at 5:30 am. The front desk gave us a $25.00 refund but I feel it should of been more like 1/2 of the night's cost.
