The train and traffic ran all night, the smell when you walked through the front door was awful and the homeless camp was our view from our room.

Due to an overnight power outage caused by a storm, the hotel was unable to serve the usual warm breakfast. However, the staff handled the situation graciously and did their best to provide alternative options, which we really appreciated.

Stayed 3 days in a King Suite. There was no daily room service, but we walked down to the desk and we're helped there by nice staff. We took our own trash out when it got full. Not a huge deal but thought they'd at least come once during our stay.
