Nice, but very little sleep

The overall stay was fine. However, the mini-fridge was so loud that we actually had to sleep with the tv on. Everything else was great, but that one thing made for a very long night.

Won’t return

Cleanliness has declined drastically since last year when I stayed here for the first time. Will not return, bathroom looked clean at a glance, but it was not. Hotel is too newly remodeled to already have since build up in the corners and behind things like the sinks faucet. Grout on tile filthy.
