Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Smaller than expected for the room. A cockroach was in the shower upon arrival, not allowed to set the air conditioner lower than 72. Staff was very helpful and kind and the building is badged for entry, they also check to make sure all visitor's are carrying their badge to maintain security.

The staff was outstanding, moving my room after first night experience of Sat. night's outside "bar smokers" whose smoke smell wafting up to my room. They didn't hesitate to move me to another room the next morning, and provided a slight "upgrade" without my request. Very nice room they moved me into. BTW, the other guests were very chill. Definitely will go back!
