Disliked: Room comfort
Clean room, friendly staff, everything would have been great if it wasn't for the uncomfortable sleep due to the mattress. We slept in a king size bed, it was very uncomfortable, it felt as if the mattress had a sink hole in the middle. They need to replace thier mattresses. Brought it up to someone at check out and we were basically told that how they were.

Around the hotel is a little noisy. It is located right at the corner and gets constant noise from both sides of the roads. They advertise the hotel as including breakfast. However, the breakfast buffet is a joke. One of the elevators was broken 2 days straight.
