Stayed here one night. It was suitable for what we needed though put in a wheel chair accessible room for some reason. The price is a little high for condition of property which I agree with other reviews- could use a refresh.

Checked into room which was a pleasant experience the lady at the desk was very nice. Dropped bags off in room. When coming back to the room we were not able to get in. Key didn’t work because the box on the door was dead. Staff at front desk tried to charge the key pad but that did not work. I was told that I had to wait until morning when management came in to get my things because there was no other access to get in room. She said she tried to call someone but they didn’t answer and because the next day was Saturday I would have to wait longer for someone to come in to open the door. There’s no excuse for this kind of service and that there is no other way to get into their rooms. I am beyond pissed off for the way this is being handled.

Did not meet expectations

Things that were nice: The entry lobby and hallways were recently redone and it looked really nice. The rooms are ok, it was comfortable - though there was way too much furniture squeezed into a small space. The breakfast had lots of options and it was easy to get everything we wanted. The courtyard / layout of the building is unique and it could be really nice if someone actually finished renovating it. Things that were terrible: The bathroom was dirty - grime all over the shower tile, hair in the tub, and blood on the bathroom wall. The pool was not properly chlorinated, which means it was so cloudy it was not swimmable (possibly filled with bacteria). All of the doors were old, which means they were barely secure. And there was no security. Anyone could walk off the street and walk right to a hotel room door. Also, someone smoked in their hotel room near us and the entire building smelled like cigarettes.

Not worth the money

First, room service never came. The tiny trash barrels were overflowing from not being emptied. Second, there was no room service, and the restaurant that served low-grade bar food was only open from 5 to 10. The bathroom faucet was leaking, and water was all over the counter. A guy came to look at it and told me not to push the handle too hard! Third, around 12:30 am, a dog started barking. After about a half hour, I called the front desk. The only solution was to offer me a new room. Really? My son was asleep, and I'd have to pack everything up to move. Terrible experince.

I would stay again

I loved this hotel and would stay again. The breakfast is very filling and kept me full most of the day. There were a lot of hot items (scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, home fries). There were also bagels, English muffins, juice, etc. The staff was very pleasant, and check in was a breeze. There was a coffee machine after the check-in desk with multiple coffee options (regular coffee, lattes, expresso, etc). That was a nice touch. The channels on the TV were extensive with four HBOs, sports, etc. The location is convenient and right off of I-91. You can't miss it. The only criticism is that there is a commuter rail that comes through here quite often. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a room at the front of the hotel.

Convenient access to major highways. Two thoughts to mention…. Hotel was not busy, yet rooms were assigned next to each other. Spacing preferred for privacy. Breakfast hours ran until 9AM. In reality workers wanted you out by 9. Workers were polite about letting you know that it was time to leave.
