The walls are thin. It seemed like there was a dance competition in town and they were all staying at the same hotels. They should have been grouped together so they all could be as loud as they wanted. For those of us that were not part of the group and just looking for a clean place to stay while traveling, we didn’t get a good night sleep.

Room was nice. Check in was easy. No soundproofing whatsoever though. Could hear elevator ding 5 doors away. Not quiet at all. Party across the hall at 3am was super loud because nothing blocked sound. Had to call front desk to stop it.

Hot water in the shower very short lived. Room smelled truly bad. Had to spray lots of febreeze. Room service doesn’t show unless you call. Half the channels on TV are religious. Otherwise very nice stay.
