Several critical issues. First, extrodinarily long wait to check in. Waited in lune for 20 minutes. There should be mors than 1 staff for the afternoon rush. The property is in disrepair. Dirty carpets in the room and hallways. There is heavy, heavy, heavy construction happening across the street that starts at 7am. Most importantly, there are addicts, drunks, and emotionally disturbed people all.arpund the entrance of the hotel. With no security, I was harrassed within several feet of the front door. This happened twice. When i brought this up to the concierge on dury, his response was a frown and.shrug.

Still under renovation

They need to not put you in a room near their 8 am renovation construction… glad it’s getting refreshed but waking up to the construction bin being emptied at 8am made me wonder why they picked that room… probably avoiding this one till the renovations are complete
