Current construction and taped paper covering balcony was unpleasant, but understandable. Very loud generators across from balcony were unexpected, also understandable. But no other complaints.

NO HOT WATER!
There was no hot water! When we called the front desk they seemed to know there was an issue and that needed to reset the hot water heater. Ridiculous to have to take a cold shower or no shower at all with little recognition that this is a major inconvenience. We will not be staying here and you can look we stayed here one night each of the last 3 months.

Liked: Staff & service
I was quite shocked to have to pay $40 to park overnight in the hotel's garage. I have stayed in dozens of hotels and never had to pay for parking in the garage. This should be noted on the website. Our room had no hot water which I discovered after disrobing and being ready to get clean and go to bed. We had to pack everything and move to a suite in order to have hot water. So aggravating. Suite was much larger, bed was comfortable but as soon as I went to take a shower I found several very long, quite noticeable hairs on the bathtub edge and bottom. Does no one clean the rooms any more? I won't recommend this hotel due to the lack of hot water in the first room, hair in the second room's bathroom and ridiculous $40 parking fee.
