The walls are thin at this hotel, including both the interior and exterior. Our room was on the 15th floor, and we could hear conversations on the street below, traffic on the 515 freeway, and of course the deep loud music emanating from the Fremont experience over two blocks away. Inside, we heard the \"couple\" next door going at it.\n\nAs many of these older, refurbished hotels go, there is still a faint but distinct odor of cigarette smoke in the room. Noticeable, but tolerable.\n\nOn the plus side, the in-room TV was large, although the selection of channels and programming left a lot to be desired.\n\nI would not stay here again.
