There were a few small issues. The refrigerator was pretty loud, the door handle looked broken(pointing to the floor) but worked with a little effort. It didn't appear to shut completely, but was secure with the locks. The bathroom door was off kilter and wouldn't stay open. In the grand scheme of things, these weren't major issues, but it seems like some upkeep is needed. On the positive side, the bed was comfortable, the tv was much bigger than I've found in most hotels, and the lounge chair, ottman, and small tv tray/table were nice bonuses besides the desk and desk chair in the room.

.The room card keys stopped working after 1 day. In a 3 day stay. I went to the front desk for reprogramming 3 times. Even more frusting was that with my home town Blue Jays in the World Series, I was unable to watch because Fox would not display in my room. I reported the issue and they did nothing about it. There is no chance I will stay there again.

The place was a little shady looking when we first arrived, but it felt good after we were there for a little while. The only trouble we had - the lock on our door. Sometimes it stuck and wouldn’t open with the key card. Jiggled it a few times and it would open.

The aesthetic of the property is nothing special, but the beds are very comfortable and the property felt safe. Water pressure wasn't great, but I am picky.

The room I booked was definitely renovated.The funds were unfortunately not used in the bathroom, it was a bit disappointing when you are impressed by the overall layout.. Check in was a breeze with the kind staff at the front desk.and thier hospitality. There are no amenities that are worth using because of the quality and conditions. However, they have graciously included a free YMCA membership during your stay due to the gym being down which is right down the road. Now for the real reason I felt this review was needed..I travel alone for business often, and I was very uncomfortable with two serious security lapses during my stay. The front desk reprinted my room key without checking any ID — just asked for my room number and made a new key and handed it to me. Later, I ordered a delivery and went to meet it in the lobby which is what i always do to keep my stay as privateand safe as possible, while waiting in the lobby, i get a call and the driver somehow knew my room number and went straight to my door. I told him, i didnt provide the room number.. he stated the information was given by the front desk. These actions completely disregard guest privacy and safety, especially for women traveling alone. I hope management takes this seriously and reviews their verification and confidentiality procedures. I want to reiterate the staff were truly genuinely kind and honest people, but in business being friendly and following safety protocols do not coincide. EVER.
