We didn’t enjoy our stay as we had planned. No The bathroom was dated and no hot water in our bathroom in the morning when we needed. Staff were adequate. The rating was incorrect from the website. It was old hotel that tried to renovate but failed. Parking garage was dirty and trash everywhere. I wouldn’t rate this hotel more than 7 or below.

Clean room and especially kind and courteous staff!! Room was a bit wonky though, the bathroom door was too close to one of the beds in the room. Making it difficult to open without bothering the person in the bed next to the bathroom.
