Blinking Light Kept me up All Night
The hotel is clean, service was great, and the environment is really cool. The thing that nearly ruined the trip was a large blinking light from a building behind my room. The blackout curtains didn’t cover the entire wall so the flashing light was visible the entire night. I should have asked to be moved to another room but already had my stuff unpacked and spread everywhere. Upon checkout, I let the concierge know. They apologized but said they had no control over it. Make sure your room doesn’t overlook the post office/industrial buildings.
