Cleaning staff absolutely beating down my door several times throughout the morning, WHILE I had the do not disturb sign up. I'm talking 3-4 hours before checkout. Ridiculous. Will never go again just for that reason.

Good low cost option for soccer teams and young families, but I would prefer an upscale option. On the plus side, the room was clean and bed firm enough. However, it felt barren with only an office chair for seating. There wasn't even a stand to put your luggage on. The building had a cheap feeling; it looked new but the wallpaper was peeling in the bathroom and halls. I could hear the people in the room above pacing at 4am. The elevators were busy as they served two hotels (Tru and Homewood Suits). The included breakfast had very limited options, and some of it was inedible, like the over cooked powered eggs and old fruit.

The TV system was down the entire stay even though they were telling people it would be fixed any minute. Very loud noises in hallways all night. Flashing light in room blinking several times per minute. Floors were not clean. Too minimalistic for my comfort in the room, hardly any furniture

Clean. Only issue the Rollin shower very small. My son who is handicapped could not use it. He is 6 feet 4 inches. Could not fit in the shower once you brought down the provided bench.
