Okay, but probably wouldn’t go back.

When we got to the hotel the tv was broken. I mean cracks in the screen and no power cord. Had to have that fixed. The toilet was broken and had to have that fixed. The hotel could definitely use some updates.

The property is very convenient and the staff is great. It is ready for some updates but still very functional. The luggage carts are terrible. They are unstable and don’t hold much. Get some real luggage carts (4 wheel).

Property selected primarily for location. The facility desperately requires an update. Come cosmetic changes noted in the public areas, but the rooms are in poor shape.

Our stay was brief. The checkkn went well with friendly front desk staff. We went to our room where our daughter was met with a dead roach in the bathroom. We awakened in the morning to the sun our eyes as there were no black curtains in our room

The building was older therefore the rooms were smaller. Nonetheless, they have done a good job of maintaining it ( plumbing worked well, comfortable bedding, etc.). It is awkward to drive onto the property given its location off of the highway exit. But that also means quick access to the highway. There is plenty of restaurants in walkable distance (1-2 blocks)

This is the 3rd or 4th time staying here. Always a good experience. Crystal and Wilson at the front desk were great! Nice pool and a lifeguard there. We appreciate the cheaper parking price and we walked to the metro within 5-7 minutes. Great location.

I loved my stay, which felt like an indulgence. The large flat screen TV and excellent view make it feel like you're a celebrity. The staff is kind and accommodating; I really appreciate being allowed to settle in early, as the front desk person knew I'd been up all night. I highly recommend this hotel and can't wait to visit again.
