9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,665 reviews)
It was quick and easy to check-in and the staff were super helpful and knowledgeable about what we received with our upgrade. We checked in close to 11pm and having the process go as smoothly as it went made for a great experience! During our stay we never had any problems with excessive noise, especially considering it was St. Patty's weekend, and everything we wanted to do was in walking distance.
