There was no info in the room about the hotel or any amenities. I was told at check in that there was ice and vending machines on 5th floor, so I assume those were the only amenities.

Was early for room check in. The desk gal was polite and said she would call me when the room was ready. The room was ready early and she called, left message for me of room readiness. Left note for housekeeper to leave extra coffee creamers for my coffee. She did , then came to the room and asked if that was enough. Great service ! 3 elevators for 25 floors, short waits for elevator
