"Nice and helpful staff. Pretty easy parking but darkly lit. Very noisy neighbors. It would be nice if hotels would not place guests with the priority of making cleaning easy for housekeeping instead of having a quiet experience. But again, this seems to be a thing across the country. Also the TV options, again as with most places in the country are very limited and connectivity was hit and miss."
