Tired hotel, cracked tile floor, bathroom door was stuck and the toilet was running - bad maintenance. Good TV and bed and it was clean - very expensive for the quality of the space

The room was ok but there was so much hair on the floor when we checked in. It was gross so I wore flip flops. Staff was nice. Roof was leaking a little.
The manager Greg was excellent going above and beyond to support us. Nothing was too much trouble and his lovely helpful friendly manner was first class. Six stars for his support 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

It's a nice hotel with excellent staff. We had 2 rooms and one room the door didn't latch so had to lock with deadbolt. Be aware that there not much within walking distance as far as food or activities. Only there 1 night and had 0 problems.
Andy at the front desk is the kindest and most helpful concierge I have experience in my travels. The hotel is great and the breakfast was a bonus.

Despite being new, the hotel seemed in disrepair. Our shower door was broken, the trim was falling off the wall in the room, the floor was sticky with several loose floor tiles. In the lobby the roof was leaking in several places. The floor in the lobby was wet and slippery. It took a long time to check in.
