Very noisy right on freeways. General disrepair of infrastructure. All ice machines inoperable. Floors and elevator in poor shape. Exterior very nice with good parking, but tight. No bottle opener in room. ADA room had lots of supprt handles but with a tub. Breakfast was above par for a hotel Breakfast, but meats were cold.
