We were very impressed with the property. Joe at the front desk was amazing and friendly and is definitely an asset to the hotel! The rooms were super cool and had everything we needed. On the 4th floor we did have some noise from the roof/etc but there are sound machines available to help drown out the noises from the hotel and from the outside traffic etc. Overall so impressed and would definitely stay again!
