2. The newly renovated lobby is beautiful, and there is a great bar (and newly designed Pump Room).

4. The room:Modern style, pleasant appearance;Very clean, like-new furnishings; Adjustable window coverings;Very small bathroom, high-end towels but cheap shower curtain that kept blowing in;No bedside clock (only large decorative clock on wall), so use your phone or other device if needed;No other mirrors in the room besides that in the bathroom (nice to have a back up if mirror in bath is steamed up, etc.

5. It's probably new and just hasn't been aired out yet, but I could not breathe to work out in that room.

6. My one comment on the rooms is it is a shame that they haven't replaced the light switch plates, a very low cost item but it makes it look like a refurb, rather than new.

8. I will also say the service has been great-the pillows and blanket are down, and I'm allergic soI called the desk and within 20 minutes I had new pillows and a new comforter.
