Security was safe. Lobby area is very nice and modern. Friendly staff. Gave us a beverage from the bar while we waited for our room. Our room was on the third floor. No elevator. And no help with luggage. They held our luggage after checking out behind the open front desk. No storage closet.

Open bar was helpful, staff was friendly, and location was good. Bathroom shower was dirty, and especially the shower floor (mold on floor, I showered with flip flops). Water pressure was very low so it took twice as long to shower.

It is a good hotel but can be much better

The hotel was clean in good location and friendly staff. The open bar is excellent. The only issue we have is the instability of water pressure depending on the time of the day. There was a day and half that there was no water at all that we have to buy gallons of water from the stores to bath and flush toilets. We were told it is problem with city water that they have no control over. Nevertheless it makes our stay thoses days to be very uncomfortable.
