Everything was pretty good. We requested adjoining rooms. When we arrived they said they could give them to us but we would have to wait 2 hours. After waiting we went to rooms only to find out they were next to each other but not adjoining. Not the worst thing but a bit annoying. Not sure what's wrong but we did have trouble with the key working as well. But all in all not a bad place.

Room was clean upon arrival, AC worked good as it was a hot weekend. Bed was a little hard for my comfort, maybe a mattress topper would have helped. Breakfast was great with lots of options and friendly staff!

Room was fine - carpets are sort of gross. Rooms should have a full length mirror. I mistakenly forgot to cancel our first night and sent an email in the morning to informa location that we were still coming for second night- Paid in advance no refund I knew. But I was surprised to hear back that our room had been cancelled as a no show? fortunately there was a room but I was quite unsettled to hear that maybe it would not have been?
