In the room there were wet spots on the floor. The pool wasn’t the cleanest. Other than that the hotel was ok, but not for me.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Friendly staff, rooms are okay, only had one elevator working & there was a wedding going on, so was not a pleasant experience. Hallway on the 5th floor had saran wrap on the ground as they were painting one elevator on 4th of July weekend. Not a great hotel, but serves the purpose. Location is amazing, but I'll try the hotel on the same block next time.
