"The hotel was clean and offered excellent amenities. However, the hallway near our room was quite noisy, and we were woken up around 7:00 a.m. by guests shouting and running through the hallways. If you are a light sleeper or sensitive to noise, this may be something to consider when booking. Otherwise, the hotel was great overall, and we appreciated the cleanliness and facilities."
