Solid choice near convention center

clean hotelservice-oriented staffloud music
The hotel is really clean. The staff are service-oriented. The location works well with OCEC events I attended and I got there easily. I got the room I wanted.
I did not like the loud music. The music played by a DJ was too loud, so having a conversation was very hard. The experience was a little disappointing.
Rooms

My room included a king-sized bed and a small desk. There were also two bottles of complimentary water I appreciate. The bathroom had a rainfall shower and several towels.

An average stay with some hiccups

clogging issuesdifficult parking
I can't say I was thrilled with a few things. The shower had clogging issues, which wasn't fixed until the third request. Breakfast also felt chaotic as staff seemed to struggle with cleaning tables. Parking proved difficult because of ongoing events at this venue. These issues definitely detracted from what could have been a better visit.
