All the ice machines were not in working order so we had to go to the front desk to get ice. Also, the refrigerator in our room didn't work and I had to call twice before maintenance arrived he then told us that it just wasn't turrned on and he would come back in a halt hour - I had to call again an hour later, it wasn't working and they had to replace it - after 4 hours of hassel on my part.

Hotel was well appointed and the beds were very comfortable - innerspring mattress that was medium firm with a pillowtop. We really enjoyed how the hotel itself was quiet, but the neighborhood had some activity. We were there Thurs - Sun. Thurs and Fri were perfect. Sat and Sun two of the elevators broke and the water pressure kept dropping mid-shower.

Overall good and efficient. Next time I will make sure the room is above floor 3 and not hidden behind the conference area. Otherwise you end up almost under ground in the back part of the building. Front desk staff should advise about that.
