This is a great and convenient place to stay. Not sure what is going on with the walls in the room. Maybe not finished??? Property looks like it was new, except walls weren’t painted and/or wall paper applied and then taken off

The property and rooms were clean and updated which was nice. The check-in process was lengthier than at other hotels. I had to fill out a form with my address etc. Also I asked for late checkout and was told I couldn’t be given it unless I provided my email and signed up for their membership program. That was disappointing. I don’t mind paying extra for late checkout, but I don’t want to have to sign up for a program just for late checkout.
