Notified about construction after confirming reservation, no breakfast except old prepackaged muffins with an apple in a bag. They charged my credit card upon arrival even after saying we wanted to split the charge upon check out. Room was clean, but very thin walls, so noisy. Over all I would not recommend or stay there again.
