Very solid experience

The room was recently remodeled. A few overlooked details; but, all in all a very solid experience.

6/10 Good

Smaller room. Air conditioner was noisy and could hear something like the ice machine all night long. Did ok in a pinch but would choose differently next time. Price was definitely too much for such a hotel-but it was a game weekend.
I think it was clean, just didn’t look that way.
