After a small snafu at check-in to a room that hadn’t been fully cleaned yet (it turns out after 60+ rooms had been vacated that morning), the desk clerk quickly moved my room and called to check to make sure everything was suitable. The room was quiet, clean, and the bed comfortable, with great WiFi. I will stay here again!
