"Clean room. Comfy beds and pillows. Bathroom fans were super loud in our room. Convenient walking distance everywhere. Use bus or subway to get around. A reflection pool across street. Limited junk pre packaged items for breakfast. These will quickly raise your blood sugar. Room has fridge, hair dryer. Too expensive but offered little amenity. They were updating hall carpets. A convenient filtered water refill station near the main lobby. They charge you for parking."
