The cleaning staff started way too early and were so loud you were startled awake. The walls are thin, so you hear everything above, below and next to you. Not a pleasant experience

Great area with lots of dining options. Location was great for our visit. Safe area and extra safety measures at the hotel. A little more “techy” than I was used to, but manageable. Lobby area was a great space and the bar had good selection. Beds were a little hard for my taste, otherwise great stay-would definitely choose again.
