It was unfortunate that the fan made a continuous clicking noise and I use a fan to sleep so that was difficult to sleep through. Although I did not ask for a maintenance request as we arrived at 1am and had to leave the next morning by 9am. Also there was a guest that was really loud around 5am and were able to hear them like she was in the room with us. For those two reason I didn’t sleep great which I specifically sought out this hotel versus others cause I thought due to there good reputation and reviews I’d get the best sleep in a short time frame. However facilities were clean and staff was pleasant. Sad continental breakfast wasn’t included especially after paying $250 a night

The room was clean, over priced though. The one complaint is the bathroom door doesn't even lock, it is just a sliding door and anyone can look in the corner of the door and see you. The room itself is clean but as I stated it is over priced and no breakfast, you have to pay extra for that.
