Reserved a suite and when I checked in they gave me a regular room. Had to go back to the front desk to get it changed and the suite wasn't ready so I had to wait 30 minutes. The fire alarms went off 2 times during the night and also there was some kind of humming noise frequently through the night. Over all I probably wouldn't stay there again but it is a good 3nough place to stay if it's your only option.

I got bitten by a bed bug. I know this could happen anywhere, but it was obviously disturbing and caused extra work for me when I got home in order to ensure that none made it home with me.

Water pressure is good and hot water doesn’t run out. I appreciate that. And the coffee station is kind for visitors. For what I paid I was happy. I only wish there was a hair dryer in the room
