Wow..this is a great place. The room is huge. The televise is huge. The only that isn't is the bathroom but at least it is a walk in shower. They gave us water bottles when we checked in and there were also two in our. Why don't more hotels do this? There is a 7-11 and Dunkin Donuts on either side of the hotel. Bonus: using my Expedia points the room only cost us $7

Checked in Saturday and room was still not serviced by Tuesday. I had to ask for service and some extra items. Staff was always polite and willing to help but we should not have to ask for the basics. Water heater broke down and caused inevitable delays for getting ready for business obligations. Accidents happen and understandable but still waiting to see the promised 10,000 points after repeated inquiries at the front desk. Relative quiet but during two nights around 2-3am folks were partying and was very unpleasant.
