the front desk helped with consolidation of room and car rental bill. the room was spacious. bathroom was stocked with a solid amount of a variety of towels. the bathroom counter was very low, it helped me correct my posture. the curtains did not close all the way so second set lets the light in helps wake me up. hot tub was nice, the jet stream seems to drop the temperature a bit. i like how there is a side entrance for guests and there is a side rear exit that leads to the rear parking.

The cleaning crew were the best. Staff indifferent and not very happy. Except for the assistant manager she was very sweet to move me rooms when I found mold on the mattress of the sofa bed. It's a gamble when you stay here. There is mold in the rooms or at least some of them, stuffy and musty. If you have allergies or astt you will not sleep well. The rooms are out date and the lobby over done with decorations that really are too much. No breakfast 24.00 for parking per night. No coffee offer all day as a complementary. I will not be staying here again. I liked the area for the dining and restaurants. If you get a good room you may like it, but it's a gamble.😞

It was a late check-in and early departure. So I didn’t get to see much of the property in the daylight. The check-in was fine, quick and easy The room was clean, comfortable and very spacious, although I felt the furnishings were very dated

I would 100% stay at this hotel again. The rooms are very large, the bed is comfortable, and everything was exceptionally clean. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the hotel offered all the amenities you need for the price. I travel frequently for work and stay in hotels across the United States and abroad, and I can honestly say this is one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in for under $150.

Front desk was no help and I checked out on the 17th and it is the 22nd and I have still not received my deposit back. It took you less than 30 seconds to put a $125 hold, for the deposit. But, it has taken over 5 days to release it? I also asked, to be sure, there were no issues with the room when I checked out.
