Huge suites, friendly staff. Room amenities a bit lacking: no glass drinking glasses or ceramic coffee mugs; no shower caps, or bathroom sundries. Comfy beds and nice furnishings.

Maybe we just had poor timing.

This hotel has massive rooms. The pull-out couch was inferior, but everything else was very nice. Our issue arose with other people on our floor. They made so much noise running between rooms. We thought they were moving furniture. We asked at least one room group to keep it down, but a half hour later, we asked the staff to help. The staff tried, but most loud guests wouldn’t open their doors to talk. Eventually, we had to move at 1 am to a smaller room and make the couch l into an extra bed. Again, the staff was friendly. It was, however, a dissatisfying stay because of other guests.
