Great Experience, My Goto in the future.

Great Experience. Breakfast was good and had plenty of options. Clean common areas. Room was at a good temp and cooled well. Had a good vibe and not frumpy. Smelled great when you walked into the building. Pool was well kept. Saw staff cleaning the pool every day I was there. Workout room was clean too. Equipment was working except for the treadmill. Not sure if it was me not knowing how to turn on the distance and time or the machine was broken…idk but it allowed me to do a short run. I Will be booking here again.

Hotel has a great location close to the Plaza Mall, a lot of restaurants as well as retail stores. Unfortunately the breakfast buffet came with a hair in my scrambled eggs and there isn’t enough room at certain intervals to even sit down in the morning hours. Hotel is quite since there are a lot of families traveling to that location.

Last Stay was Better

The room cleanliness was ok. The hallway carpet was filthy. I saw the cleaning carts in the hall when I checked in and I noticed large chunks of dirt in the hallway at the time. I was surprised to see them still there the next morning. They had not vacuumed the hall. There were barely any cups for coffee in the morning and they were small foam cups without lids. The front desk is always friendly though and I feel safe here, so I will be back.

NOT WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE. Non ADA

Unprofessional staff. Room advertised, booked and paid for, yet was unavailable when I showed up. Staff was not knowledgeable, not helpful and refused to give their names. They advertise wheelchair accessible rooms, charged me for it and the rooms were not wheelchair accessible. I called before arriving and specifics were confirmed by hotel staff. Totally ruined my travel plans, had to find another location that did fulfill my mobility needs. 5 days later and I still have not received my refund!
