Amazing stay! Perfect location, nice staff. What they can do better: put a multi machine on Gym area, fix A/C from Gym, put a shower at the Pool, have better options for breakfast at the restaurant. Overall it's amazing!

The hotel is in a convenient location and very walkable. The property looks like it has been renovated, and the decor choices look great. Lobby is nice. Staff were friendly. The property does have lingering issues of an older building: Bathroom was small, toilet was weak, the lights went out while my daughter was in the shower. Our room had a pull out bed but no bedding. We did not visit the on site restaurant.

The only good part about this hotel is the hotel staff was really great! Other than that, it wasn’t the best experience. I wish I would have spent my money on a different hotel. Had to change rooms, phone didn’t work, the elevator was so small (I’m claustrophobic) I had to walk the stairs every single time I went up or down from the room. Not to mention I had 2 kids with me, 1 of which is a toddler. The site makes the hotel look a lot nicer than it is.

The property was in a great location. The restaurant was easy & good food options. The room itself was fine, seemed to be missing some furniture (odd open space). The bathroom was tiny & there weren’t any hand towels - very odd all the way around. Staff was hit or miss. The parking fee was OUTRAGEOUS
