Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was nice and helpful, room was clean. But our room was on the side of the building that was close to a busy street. A traffic light was next to the hotel entrance. Cars revving up when the light turned green made our stayvery noisy, all night.

Great family suite!

Enjoyed the stay. Love our suite for the family. Little disappointed that the “hot tub” was room temperature at best. But the shower/bath in the room was nice and hot! Good breakfast and service!
