It would have been nice to have an additional chair to sit on. And the television stations were woefully limited. Otherwise, ok.

The hotel was very nice. The employees at the front desk were incredibly helpful. The only issue we had was with the parking. They charged us $100 instead of $50 and continued to argue with us. It took awhile for them to straighten it out.

i only stayed here for one night and it was not a bad stay. the room smelled like urine very strongly which obviously was gross. i did not tell the front desk because i was late to my event and didn’t have time to switch rooms.
