Not sure if it's just a busy time with the legislature in session, but overall, it seemed like staffing was low and the quality overall has declined. Lots of "I don't know"... it was hard just to get change made for tips. Staff was friendly and helpful, but limited with solutions. After being awake at 4am from noise upstairs, no one answered the front desk phone until hours later. I was also told to run the shower for 20minutes so it could get hot for a shower. The location is ideal for work purposes, I just hope the next stay is better...

All staff were very nice and pleasant from the valet to the front desk to housekeeping. The room was bigger than I anticipated which I enjoyed. It was clean and presentable. My only downside was that the elevator was so small. Other than that, I enjoyed my stay and would return.

The room was beat up and rundown and the mattress for the sofa bed was absolutely disgusting. Furniture was broken and damaged. The sofa bed mattress had what appeared to be dried blood on it in addition to mold/mildew and other unidentifiable black specks.
