The bed is terrible! I’ve stayed in 2 different rooms there and both are so very bad. It feels like laying on a box of cardboard boxes covered in a mattress pad. Everything and everyone else is absolutely perfect! Kindest staff I have ever met!

The staff was not very welcoming, the room was clean except the glasses all had a disgusting mildew smell which tells me they are not being cleaned, the bed was comfortable. Overall our stay was just fine. We picked it for its proximity to our plans for the night. Would not be likely stay again.

Didn't get breakfast there. Rooms nice, clean, comfortable. Had rooms on opposite sides of the hotel due to 2 separate reservations, which was fine. Some kind of bass-type noise (booming) could be heard in both rooms until 2-3am and I had a hard time sleeping. It was Halloween weekend. If you're a deep sleeper, you may be OK.

The stay was ok, hotel clean, bed comfortable. I stayed 2 nights on separate reservations because my husband was in the hospital down the street, a Friday and Saturday night. I stayed at one end of the hotel the first night, the other end the 2nd night. In both rooms I heard the boom-boom sound that I thought was like the bass from music, maybe coming from a bar in the area bouncing off of the surrounding buildings. It was Halloween weekend. I had a hard time sleeping, even with a pillow on my head. I did get up to use the restroom at about 3am, and the sound was gone, both nights. I asked the desk clerk and she said there were no bars near them. I don't know where the noise was coming from, but it's odd I heard it at both ends of the hotel. If you're a heavy sleeper you'll probably be fine.
