There is a timeshare sales desk right in the front desk area. Sales staff pretend to be part of the normal hotel process. They scammed us into a timeshare scheme. We are still trying to get $500 removed from our cc. Avoid this scam!

The particular room we had must have been by water pipes/heater or something. We would hear water running and also hear a humming noise afterwards. This happened several times throughout the night. Overall the hotel was nice and had some really neat artwork and architecture. Very convenient location and they had live music at the bar area, so that was fun. I think we got unlucky with the specific room we had and noise.
