We stayed in February during winter, and the windows let freezing air enter the room. One mattress was uncomfortable and made a lot of noise from the springs with the slightest change of position On our last day, we found a small cockroach in the bathroom.

The staff was friendly and attentive. The room was clean. The breakfast was good however, The bagels were stale and when trying to get the eggs and such the lids would not stay up. You should move the plant by the juices and place the plates, bowls, etc for easier access for those who are vertically challenged. Felt on the bottom of the chairs they will move more easily and quieter.

The room was clean and staff was very helpful and nice. Breakfast was better than most similarly priced hotel breakfasts but not as good as it looked in pictures. Really great location with lots of food and transit nearby and walking distance from the loop.
