Aldo

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was comfortable, the staff friendly, and attentive. But the location of the room made it difficult to sleep as I heard doors slamming all night long. This was either to stairwell or storage room but it was constant enough to wake me every so often. Additionally, a lot loud talking in the halls. Though not a hotel issue it was annoying.
