The check in staff was slow and very NON engaging. She didn't smile nor look up. I asked for a baggage rack, because it was me and my mother in law, both of us older women and we had a case of water an all of our bags. There was a young guy there that brought us one. Instead of offering to assist us with the bags, he said, "We only ask you return it to the elevator." I mean, really? Where was he raised? AND, the bathroom was dirty. Strange hair on the shower wall from previous guest. Not impressed.

Mattresses were awful. We left a night early as we couldn't sleep another night on them. The room itself was nice, clean, spacious, shower was excellent, very clean. Hotel couldn't help there was construction going on outside the window so at 7:30 am the jack hammering started. Tied to a small mall area with several restaurants, all accessible from a pedestrian subway system was very nice!
