The heater was broken, you couldn't adjust heat, window shades did not raise, room dark, hallways dark, we had to use the light on our phones to find our room and card slot on door. No top sheet on bed, housekeeping said you have to special request it! No coffee pot , or blow dryer in room. Hotel needs updating. Shower worked great. Glad we were only there for a few days. Beautiful reception area but rooms are extremely small.

The shower was broken (throwing water everywhere), the shade was completely detached from the raising and lowering apparatus, and the heater/cooler ROARED nonstop (68 decibels). We reported everything right away and asked to switch rooms. They Said they would “take a look” and switch our room if they couldn’t fix it. Now, four days later, we’re on our way to the airport. Repeated (polite!) requests got us nowhere. Should we have shouted and pounded the reception desk? NOTHING.

Not the best visit

A bit disappointed this time. Heater was broken, beds are hard, no hot water one morning. Parts broken in room. Just overall needs updating.

I was not impressed with this hotel. The heat was vey old and hard to regulate. there was a big lump in the carpet that was for sure a tripping hazard. Hallway to room is not well lit. Hard to see the slot slide the key card in. Hotel had no restaurant, cafe, room service. You have to order ice which takes them a long time to bring to the room. The only thing I can say positive is that the room was very clean. The lobby is much nicer than the rooms for sure.
