Disliked: Amenities
There was no hot water so unable to have a bath. Shower pressure was weak. Toilet was on a slant so you had to hold up the toilet seat when you went to the bathroom. Bed was comfortable and room was spacious. Customer service was great until the last day as the person we dealt with when we checked out was dismissive and slightly rude.

The hotel is very clean and quiet. The lot had plenty of space and check in was quick. The only negative would be the pool/hot tub. The pool is very cold and small, and the hot tub is merely lukewarm. Perhaps a renovation is needed in that area but otherwise the hotel is excellent.

The stay was nice, a complimentary breakfast would’ve been appreciated with the price paid for an average hotel but there is the option to dine in on the main floor of the restaurant at your own cost.
