Some of the lobby is being renovated but they came up with a good workaround. The entrance is on Lexington temporarily, but doesn’t feel like a construction site. Very friendly staff!

Getting upgraded to a suite was wonderful, and our room was super quiet and clean. I also LOVE a room with a bathtub, so that was an even extra bonus. Going back tonight, so fingers crossed!
