3. I'll start with the negatives and then end on a positive one: -The hotel has no lobby and the lounge on fifth floor is tiny and dark (it has dim ceiling lights and no windows)-They play loud music early in the morning in the lounge, so loud that we could hear the music from our room on the same floor.
