The hotel was clean, had a friendly staff and the bed was comfortable. No complaints with the hotel but the bar next door was very loud and didn’t stop playing music until 1:30 am. We could hear all the lyrics word for word. We were on the 6th floor. So as far as a restful nights sleep sadly it wasn’t. Again no fault of the hotel just something to know when booking.
