This property is undergoing major renovations. I have no complaints about the staff, they were very friendly. However there was a makeshift entrance and reception area but the worse part was going to the elevators. You had to go through a work area littered With debris that felt very unsafe. Our room had been remodeled nicely. Parking lot was also closed off in part due To Construction
