My only complaint is the carpet in the hallway on the 4th floor. I don't know if the carpet on the other floors are in the same condition. The carpet smells bad, is heavily worn in some areas, and should be replaced ASAP. The room was clean. The bed was good and the shower was great. I was also impressed with the rate fir one night.

I paid extra for the hot tub room. The hot tub Faucet does not work and it is unusable. They evidently knew it was broke and put me in the room anyway. They did offer to put me in another room at 8:30pm after I called about it 3 hours prior. The folks were friendly.

Relatively quiet. Easy to get to. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was on the 3rd floor. Could hear people (children probably) running up and down the halls above us. The furniture, couch and chair, needs to be deep cleaned or replaced. And the hall way carpet needs a good cleaning.

We changed rooms with no problem whatsoever. First room was adjacent to someone who brought a dog with them which barked constantly. Room also smelled really musty. Our new room was perfect. Had a great nights sleep.
