Updated but seems very worn- could use fresh paint and new carpet. Front desk service not super friendly or helpful. Didn’t explain breakfast or parking and seemed annoyed and unapproachable. Felt safe in the area.

This property desperately needs updating, renovating. It’s very 1990s looking. And the common areas were so hot. Miserably so. Lobby, elevators and hallways.
