Woke up to massive banging, drilling -construction, looks like they were doing a whole floor remodel. Day right after superbowl and waking up from that was the world loudest blender and sum. You get what you pay for though. Clean room cool night staff tho. Check in at 11pm bed was okay, 8:30 check out to race home and re-coupe some sleep.

The room was clean, bed and linens were good. The staff was very courteous. The towels were small and thin. The decor seemed a little sterile/sparse. The hotel is clearly under renovation, which I was not aware of when I booked.
