Old fashioned, in a good way

I had to attend some meetings outside and also work in my room for several hours. I found my room extremely comfortable, roomy and well appointed. I was able to work and rest just fine.

The room was comfortable, and we loved the location! The only thing is that when our toilet clogged, the staff that came in to fix it left “stuff” in the toilet after she unclogged it. Don’t know why she did that.

Nice hotel

We had one of the new eclectic rooms and it was great. Nice to have coffee in the lobby at all times. It would be helpful for front desk to have brochures or walking maps of the area.
