9/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)
Clean room, friendly front desk staff. When she asked if I had a preference on where the room is I explained my son was sensitive to noises due to his autism. She was very empathetic and assigned us a nice quiet room away from the elevators. I didn’t take down her name, but she was a gem.
