Hotel

The hotel is too cold. Its freezing walking through the hotel. I put the temperature of my roomon 76 to counteract the temperature walking through the hotel. Its not good to need a jacket to walk throygh the hotel and its 80 degrees outside. The front desk, breakfast food service was excellent. The rooms needed better linen service. Not enough towels and the cleaning people come before checkout time and disturbed us everyday at 10a.m. We had a 2 day stay.

The property’s overall appearance is in good condition. The front desk staff were accommodating. There was an issue or two with my toilet’s handle not working properly. I ask for maintenance and they never came. The ironing board didn’t work properly as well.
