Nice hotel but service could be improved

The air conditioner was very loud. I tried for over an hour to print two documents. The Business Center was closed, the printer in the lobby would not connect, and the staff said they could not print from a memory stick (which I don't believe). My attempts to mail the files to the staff failed. I finally gave up after running out of time for an appointment.

Great place to stay

Everyone at the hotel was friendly and helpful. We had drinks and dinner in their dining area and Monty was working the bar and waiting tables and he was really great. So friendly and helpful. It is great to have a bar and restaurant available without having to go out. Our room was very clean and comfortable and check-in/check-out were easy and quick. Great choices for breakfast too. Also the hotel is right next door to a multi-plex movie theater and we took advantage of that to see a movie.

Pet Friendly and Accommodating

My husband, 12 yo son and our ESA Golden Retriever stayed for one night. The hotel is undergoing reservations and other than the sound of a drill after 10am, we did not notice and was not bothered by it. We ate breakfast in the hotel. We had the breakfast buffet and the kids meal. Everything was great and the staff were super friendly. They had a nice grassy area set up right outside the patio area with waste bags and trash can for the dog. Would stay here again for a weekend trip!
Our ESA was welcomed with open arms!
