Originally had a full size booked, was upgraded to a queen for free. Everyday room was cleaned with bed being made and fresh towels. Was perfect for my stay and just what I needed.

Great staff as always, from front desk to bar, but the rooms are getting a bit worn and the price is not as competitive as it was to warrant the lack of basic amenities. Still ok for one or two nights if you're spending the day out.

The room is too small for a Queen bed, which is one of our requirements in selecting a room. The bed was less than a foot from one wall, and a TV mounted on that wall made it nearly impossible to get out on that side of the bed. Management should not have put a Queen bed in such a small room, nor should they have charged as much as they did for such a small room.

The facility fee $22 plus facility fee tz of $2.20 was not mentioned as Hotels website indicated that the price included all fees and taxes. When I checked in it was not mentioned either. The check in person said that I was all paid up and my credit card would only be used if I charged something to the room. Instead I was charged an additional $68.

Luggage storage was an easy process. Room was fairly clean besides a few spots in the corner of the showers and some usual wear and tear around the door and on the TV remote. Didn't get housekeeping while I was there but I was in the room when they called me in the early afternoon to ask if I needed anything. I did get upgraded to a queen room which was still fairly small. Glad I got upgraded because I don't know if I could have handled the smaller room that I booked. Overall a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars

The breakfast was passable but the staff person didn’t speak English so it was difficult to find out what was available. We didn’t realize we could have eggs so we had pastry.
