Forest Park Hotel by MDR
The walls between rooms are probably very thin. Lack of adequate sound proof. We could almost hear everything people talked from the other room

Clayton Plaza Hotel & Extended Stay
Nice hotel. Rooms are ok. Breakfast was good but it’s sit down only so if you are in a rush or want to eat in your room that’s not an option.
