8.4/10 Very Good! (1,350 reviews)
A couple of things to note: The lobby area is very sparsely decorated and over lit with bright white LEDs. There's little to no seating that's inviting or attractive; you want to spend as littler amount of time there as possible. The morning coffee "service" is a "push to select" machine; something you'd find at a truck stop or gas station. When checking in, make sure you do not get a room next to or near the elevators - we had room 600, next to the elevators and we could hear the cables "moaning" every time the lift was used. Kudos to the staff, they were very helpful and always welcoming with a smile and kind words..
