Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was clean and spacious, and staff courteous, helpful, prompt. Breakfasts (we had three days worth) were better than we've experienced elsewhere and breakfast/kitchen staff very attentive. The pool was clean and well kept, and it's big enough to do mini-laps and often empty enough to allow this. One recommendation for improvement: more grab bars in the bath tub/shower combination. Our room had a grab bar to assist with entrance, but bars on the side and back of the shower stall would make showering more safe for everyone.

The hotel is nothing special and desperately needs a renovation. My closet was broken, the bathroom was cramped, and the shower temperature was inconsistent. However, I really enjoyed the 24/7 latte and cappuccino machine, that was a great amenity.

The room looked nice at first, then I went to take a shower and there was pubic hair in the shower. The sink looked like someone brushed and rinsed and left crumbs of something. There was hair on the floor, like no one swept, vacuumed or moped it. Had to get off the bed because the front desk called that my accident fee was not charged when the first guy said it was all set. The elevator noise was very annoying, it made it hard for me to fall asleep. I’ve stayed there before and was not like this.

1. heating initially did not work and the heater had to be replaced, but after that the insulation was bad and very cold air (it was very windy and below freezing) came in. 2. there was a continuous construction project in the next room, next to 519, making noise For the rest it was good

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property and facilities feel quite dated. The bathtub drain wouldn’t close properly, and the bathtub faucet was loose. The hotel also does not offer laundry facilities or laundry service, which was surprising to me. That said, everything else was great, especially the super friendly staff and the hot and freshly prepared breakfast.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Contacted the hotel to ask about early check in and was told I could check in anytime after 1pm. Showed up at 2pm and was told check wasn’t til 3… Told them about the conversation I had previous with their staff and they again said check in is at 3… Waited 35 minutes at the desk until they found me a room after telling me they were all dirty. Got a key, went up to 6th floor and it didn’t work… went back down to desk to get a new key, back up to 6th floor and still didn’t unlock the room… Went back down again and eventually they sent maintenance up to the room with me again with another key that didn’t work… I was let in the room by a master key from maintenance and then asked if I needed a key for myself… Overall a slow and horrible entry into the property and no way would I ever go here again. The maintenance worker eventually got the front desk to make a key that work and delivered it to my room and I’m grateful for that. Room was moderately clean. Bathroom should have been cleaner and I decided to skip the complimentary breakfast out of fear of cleanliness.

Pool heater was not working at the time of our stay earlier this month. I explained that we traveled specifically for the pool so my son could swim for his bday. I was advised to checkout a day early, then call back to speak to the manager regarding a refund for the 2nd night (that we did not stay) and perhaps a partial refund for the first night. I have left multiple messages and no one has even bothered to call me back. Terrible customer service and no way to get a response.
