We had a room with an old door adjoining the next room. You could hear right through it like it was made of paper. It was like sharing a room with a stranger. The stranger came back at two in the morning and kept us awake for 3 hours. For the money it hard to believe that they would subject their guests to it.

Almost perfect

Overall a great experience. My only issue is that we were given room #2 -and while it’s a great room - due to its location on the first floor it can be noisy in the morning. There seems to be a supply closet right be the door and in the morning workers were getting supplies and talking. Also, the way that the room is set up when you open the front door to the room you can see right into the room and directly to the bed. The hotel was amenable in switching rooms for us if we wanted. Anyway, it was a very good experience and we would definitely be back if the opportunity presented itself.

I was either misquoted a price of $318.27 and was charged $407.05 on my credit, both of which were sent to my email on the Expedia website. As a vonsequence, I am requesting a refund of $88.78 to my credit card. Thank you.

Unfortunately did not meet my expectations for $362 a night. Very disappointed. Not even a chest of drawers or stand to hold your bag for your clothing. Nightstands were wood attached to the wall. No TV nor refrigerator. 2 bottles of water on the table but nothing to keep them cold. Locking the door does not seem secure because you can see the light from outside around the door. Parking lot did not exist because they are under construction. I would definitely not recommend this hotel.
