Nice in the rooms… tired looking outside.

Lobby and halls are a bit old and tired. BUT the rooms are clean and renovated. Good AC. Clean linens. Clean bathroom. Fridge. Comfy beds. ( We didn’t eat the free breakfast but it looked fine) Very expensive due to location and Friday night.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Well, room rates suddenly changed from a flat rate per day to a variable rate after I booked the room, not unusual. But the complete lack of maid service, inability to get a clean towel or new bar of soap is also a problem. Upside was that breakfast okay and the front desk help was nice.
