Market Street Hotel

Market Street Hotel

8/10 Good
"Check in is on 7th floor. Only one entery. No place to stop to unload car, no luggage cart or staff at entery for directions. Overall 5 stars. An exuberant good morning from housekeeping team members in hall way is a great start to the day. Hotel pre booked ride to airport and he was waiting 15 mins early! Was last stop on 3 country 14 night trip. Felt well taken care of."
