The room was comfortable and clean. We were in room 305 which is located above the night club. Upon returning form our night out the music was loud, I went to the front desk and asked if they could move us to the other end of the hallway, which they did. The staff was courteous and accommodating. Music plays until 2 AM.

Caitlin

Disliked: Room comfort
The room was not bad. I didn't use many of the amenities so I can't comment on that. I believe my room was above or next to the nightclub- the music was so loud in my room it felt like it must be nearby. It didn't end until around 2am. Would absolutely have been nice to know that that would have been a possibility because I would have booked elsewhere. Will never stay here again.
