There is MAJOR CONSTRUCTION directly across the small street from the entrance. Jackhammers were being used until 11 pm on a Friday night. I mentioned this on checkout, and they said “the construction company has a permit to work 24/7.” I heard that twice. Maybe they do, but it is terrible to be a guest there at this time. Construction is complete in APRIL 2026. Do not stay there until then. It is a shame as otherwise it is a great hotel.

There is a lot of construction happening directly in front of the building. Getting to the front door requires walking on the edge of a busy street. The room was very warm, I tried twice calling the front desk to ask if they could cool the room down with no improvement. They offered to bring up a fan at 2:30am as a solution to it being hot.

Gorgeous hotel, the room was beautiful and one of the most comfortable bed we had in a long time. The staff was very professional and helpful and made us feel like VIP. There are a lot of constructions around the hotel but it’s not their fault. They were even thoughtful enough to provide hear plugs.
