This property was supposed to be a four star hotel but I have had better experiences at a two star hotel. The room had wall paper separating from the wall, the sink had an old mildew smell. The showers had red and black mold and the grout was stained dark which left me feeling that the hotel not only needed better cleanliness but an update. I will say the bed and the pillows were very comfortable but for the price I paid, it was not worth what we received. I’m shocked by the rating the hotel had. Maybe we just got a level of the hotel hadn’t been revamped. Honestly a bummer.

Hotel was reasonably priced for our stay during a holiday weekend, the only down side is that the parking for the hotel is valet only. I think it should be discounted for those staying longer than a day at the hotel. Other that. I’d definitely stay here again!

Very nice property. Lobby was immaculately clean and smelled very nice. Staff was welcoming and resourceful. The pool area was under reconstruction so beware of that if you are looking to use those amenities. Otherwise 10/10
