Room was spacious and bathroom was very modern and clean. Amenities including the bar and the gym were great. The only big issue for me was the freeway noise. I shouldn’t have been surprised as to how close the property is to the freeway. I wonder if more insulation or double panes windows would be helpful to mitigate the noise. Staff were helpful and parking was easy to access.
