Verified traveller

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Very uncomfortable and they kept security deposit.
Very uncomfortable. The bed is a very cheap pillow you sink into and destroys your back. The rolling chair in the room is very uncomfortable. To top it all off, I haven't received either of my $50 security deposits. I called the hotel and they said there was no reason the money would have been held and that i should've had it returned?

Single king room very small (desk almost touches bed when used), very loud all night as far as doors slamming and sounding like people above room stomping at all times. Lobby area was clean with coffee at all times, friendly staff, safe neighborhood with plenty of dining options.
