The staff was great! Very helpful and had great suggestions for places to eat and things to do. We arrived a few minutes early and she let us go ahead and check in. Can't say enough positive about the staff. The hotel itself has a lot of "character". A little rough around the edges but it was convenient to the parade we wanted to attend. Overall we have certainly had much worse experiences.
