The reception staff was very friendly and helpful. The lady who checked me in and was also on duty when I checked out was very helpful. If I am not wrong her name was Ms. Fernanole With me was my elderly mother in a wheelchair and thios lady not only pushed me to enroll in IHG membership but got me a room close to the elevator to help my aunt's mobilization. One day we had some guests and the staff provided us couple of chairs to help. The beds were quite comfortable and the bathroom was loaded and clean. I thought the hotel cleaning would be daily cleaning but they said cleaning would only happen on checkout or when we requested. We didn't have a meal at the hotel but there was a 711 in walking distance as well as a gas station. I would highly recommend this lady Ms. Fernanole and her colleague Karim who helped make our stay comfortable

Everything that you need is at a walking distance which is amazing. Bar is around the corner, retail is down the street, restaurants everywhere. Although, what caught me off guard was having to pay for parking and paying a $100 security deposit upfront. Wish that was included before reservations, but overall, everything is clean. My room didn't have any trash bags for our garbage which was inconvenient, but that's okay as well.

The beds and pillows were uncomfortable and the breakfast was unavailable when we were leaving. Yet, we were not informed of the time period for breakfast. So, we paid for breakfast we didn’t even have an ability to have time to eat. The toilet was unusually tall, making going to the bathroom uncomfortable and difficult.

Yes, it was. The staff was very helpful and courteous. During my 3 day stay, my key card needed to be reprogrammed on 2 different days. When it had to be reprogrammed, the reprogramming of the 2 cards needed to be done twice before the key cards worked again. Although breakfast was offered, a guest needed to pay for breakfast, separate from the hotel bill. I realize the website indicated breakfast was to be paid separate and I knew it in advance, but having breakfast included with the hotel would be an additional amenity. I realize the cost of the hotel would be more. Additionally, parking was also an additional cost and not included with the hotel cost. I realize I knew it in advance, but having it included with the hotel may attract more customers;although the hotel cost would be more.
