"The staff was incredibly helpful and the location is great. I seriously can’t rave enough about how great and helpful the staff were! I arrived early and just asked to drop off my bags but they actually went ahead and let me check in early, which I really appreciated after a long days worth of travel. It was clean, but I will note there was some kind of construction going on in the building? I have a sleep disorder and it just went on a little late which made it hard for me to adjust, but I’m not blaming the hotel for it. I would recommend staying here anytime."
