As other reviews remark, a bit tired in furnishings. But staff were all very friendly and helpful. We originally had a noisy room by the elevator, but they moved us immediately when we complained. Our room was missing a microwave, but they brought one when we asked and sent someone to replace the hall light. Cleaners were terrific. Nice neighborhood with great coffee at Cupitol around the corner.
