Pros (+) The room and hallway looked refreshed with new paint. The room itself was nice and clean with a recently updated appearance. Housekeeping did a good job. The front desk was friendly and made suggestions about where to eat.
Cons (-) Front desk staff was helpful but not too professional, often sitting in the foyer watching TV. While updated, the hallway still seemed to have a faint smell of smoke even though it was a non smoking floor.
