We asked for a first floor room or room near the elevator due to a medical condition. We were reserved a room on the 4th floor where we had to walk a long distance to get there. We had to walk down stairs from the parking lot which was not disability accessible. I would not stay here again.

Room was nice, beds good and water hot. They had coffee and hot chocolate available 24 hour. Staff was very nice. A/C not as good. Also, had $100 deposit that did not know about. Had a sign to read as was checking in. But, already committed to staying. If was listed but I didn’t read then my fault.

I loved the front deak ladies. My room wasnt thoroughly clean when we moved in. At breakfast, one of the staff workers threw away my cup that i had brought down from my room with me.. it was a personal cup not a room cup. I also ordered a king size suite online but upon checking in, i was given a queen size suite
