I had extreme difficulty checking in even though it was pre-paid. It seemed to be a problem with Orbitz travel agency and the hotel. It was not easy to resolve and discouraging to stay there.

Okay, but some concerns.
The bed was comfortable and linens and towels were clean. But the room was somewhat dingy and the bathroom was worn and grimy in spots. The sign in the lobby said that the breakfast would begin at 7:00 am, but the doors didn't open until 8:00 am each day. This caused me to miss the breakfast two of the three days. There were several homeless people loitering around the hotel.

The first night we checked and they put us in a room that was dirty and had a completely shattered window that was barely held together with tape. Wind came through as well as noise from the street below all night. They said there wasn't another room available. The following morning they also said no other rooms were available, but later in the morning they found they had 2 other rooms available. We were able to be placed in the quieter room, and this room was very good. It was clean, the bed was comfortable and best of all, it was quiet with no window issues.
