I would like a refund for the 1st night stay , as my 21 year old son was stuck in the restroom for about 45 mins , the glass door was stuck , only opened about 13 inch . It was like that the whole night untill the eject morning , the front desk person responded to our room as he was unable to open , we both tried to pry the big heavy glass door , he called the on call maintenance guy but was not able to come in , it was all documented , they gave us some complementary snacks that was it . Hopefully we can resolve this thnaks

The hotel was very clean and nice. The staff was nice and knowledgeable. The best part was the safety…you need a key card for the elevator to move to any floor. I would love to stay here again!!

Hotel is clean and the staff is awesome! We were there for soccer and it was close to the stadium. My only complaint would be it’s a little loud if your room is next to the street but other than that I would highly recommend.
