A bit noisy
If you visit this hotel, make sure your room doesn’t face Monsignor Rd. Cars blasted this music all night. Additionally, road construction with jackhammers started promptly at 7:00 am.

Not worth the price
Hotel is older and it's insane that it was $400 to stay there but it was comfortable and clean. The problem I had was that housekeeping staff was outside my door in the hallway screaming back-and-forth at 8:30 and didn't stop until 11 at one point I asked them if they could please turn down the walkie-talkies they were using because the volume was very loud and I couldn't get back to sleep. I just got a blank look, but they turned it down and just continued yelling back-and-forth.

Staff was average, room was above a very noisy street. Door handle to bathroom was ready to fall off. Room we booked was for 4 adults with 2 queen beds. Received fresh towels on 2nd night however beds were not made. Also, only received enough coffee, cups, creamer etc in room for 3 people each day but we were 4.
