Our room was clean. The staff was super lovely and helpful giving recommendations for food and such. The best thing about this hotel is the location. We took our car out the first day and I wish we hadn’t. We ended up walking literally every else we wanted for the weekend. Our room was perfect for what we needed but definitely a bit smaller than a lot of other hotels I’ve stayed at.

LaTanya

Business traveler
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
All the staff here seemed completely put upon to do their jobs. The front desk people were often not around, the person who checked me in was curt, just handed my keys, and didn't greet. I went to the restaurant a couple of times--each time it was just one person working who rarely came to the table. They all seemed annoyed to be working. My hotel room had stuffing coming out of the chair. There is no printing/business station, so if you need to print you have to email it to the front desk and wait for them to print, which is inconvenient. Parking is 25 a day but there is a lot nearby where you can park free on weekends. For the money, this hotel isn't worth it, to be honest.
