Decent stay

Check-in and check out were fast and easy. Cozy room but the bathroom shower fixture fell out (missing a few screws) that we had to call maintenance on. Otherwise it was a decent stay

I overpaid for a very poor kept facility. The mattress was old and terrible. The pillows the same. The overpriced room should have included breakfast but that would have been an additional $60 plus for the four of us. The hotel has four floors and only one working elevator. 1 star and I wouldn't recommend staying there.

Clean, neat, beds were comfortable, but no unflavored tea in the rooms. The hot tub pump doesn't run even after being closed for repairs in January, safety handrail into the hot tub is way too low, after 7 months there is still only one elevator operating with a note that says the elevators are being " upgraded". Nearly impossible to find a place to park in the evening and when I suggested that the counter staff alert guests arriving with cars that there is covered parking around the side of the building which would leave space for pickup trucks, there response was to show me an unmarked auxilary lot for overflow on an Arial view of the lot to find in the dark. Not much better than January for half the money then.

Average hotel

The building is old and the elevator doesn’t work properly. The rooms are cramped but the beds are comfortable. Front desk staff were not so friendly but cleaning staff very friendly. Breakfast should be included for free as it is not worth paying for. Overall I would rate this hotel as average and not worth the price of $140 per night.

Hotel stay

Only one elevator working in the hotel which made it a bit frustrating. We hear this has been an issue for quite some time. This issue needs to be dealt with asap The staff in the restaurant were very friendly & efficient
