Our stay was less good than on previous occasions. Breakfast ran out of food first morning. Staff courtesy was limited. We had to search for staff to clean our room (we were there five nights). Location is convenient for us and we will probably book again, but hoping things will be better next time.

Checking was a disgrace Rooms overbooked with current visitors having paid to extend their stay until 6pm when original check in was 3pm. No prior warning to this Eventually got in room at 7.45pm. No offer of a discount or refund despite losing out on almost 5 hours of room availability

Check-in was smooth and hotel is a great location. However, there was a lingering smell of smoke in the room and we came to find out the HVAC system has some quirks which often led to heat exceeding nearly 80 degrees. That said, the hotel did offer us an opportunity to speak to the front desk for a possibility of swapping rooms, which was appreciated.

The hotel had no hot water when we stayed at the end of December. The hotel could have emailed to inform guests but did not -- only telling guest upon check in. Compensation was just a waiver of the $28 resort fee. Will never stay at this hotel again.
