The accommodations are comfortable and clean. Staff friendly and efficient! The only problem encountered was there’s no elevator anywhere on site. I have MS and hiking up and down the stairs was more of a physical challenge than I care to encounter again.

Nice view and very nice spacious lobby area and room is, too spacious with laminate floors which we really like. Hotel offers a restaurant where is little pricey and a cafe. The hotel let us earlier check in and we think they gave us upgraded room? Not so many guest were staying the hotel during week days, but we hear lots of noise from upstairs and doors shutting sounds from outside. We are glad we brought noise cancellation machine. One more! We received a letter from the hotel through Expedia, thanking us to book and saying complimentary breakfast from 5:00 a.m every day. This was birthday celebration relaxation trip, we were happy to know this info. But the hotel staff was not friendly and denied this offer. Next morning, the person who appeared like a manager offered us breakfast sandwiches for us after we mentioned this wrong information from the hotel. Hope they changed the letter for future guests. And we didn’t place a sign for not to bother, but they didn’t come to clean our room. We disappointed.

No breakfast included.

In multiple locations, a full continental breakfast was mentioned as having been included. It was a huge disappointment to learn that it was no longer an option under the new ownership. We only book hotels with breakfast included due to the rising cost of literally everything. Had I known, I would not have chosen this hotel.

It's a recently renovated hotel, which consists of four buildings connected by walkways and stairs. No elevators but they will offer to bring your luggage upstairs for you. No free breakfast anymore since the new management took over, which was disappointing for the price I paid ($160). The rooms are nice enough, minimal and spare but clean and comfortable. I was on the highway side which was noisy.
