Excellent Location

This location is extremely convenient for Proctor's and other downtown attractions. The hotel is older but well maintained. Staff was friendly and attentive. Breakfast area is small for the size of the hotel but lots of people just took it up to their rooms.

Impossible to find

My only complaint is that the hotel is hidden behind Proctors Theater and impossible to find…. Just one tiny, hidden sign. One has to look toward the sky to see the sign on the top of the multi floor structure. Drove around block 3x and called hotel twic3 to finally find it.

Really enjoyable stay and very friendly staff. The breakfast included was absolutely excellent and the gym and the pool are very clean and accessible. Only problem is that we stayed on a busy night and the initial lot and the overflow lot were both full so we had to park elsewhere when parking was included as part of the advertisement.

Awesome staff!

The hotel is quite dated and a little noisy during busy transition times. Bedding was ok. For this hotel it is the wonderful staff that make the difference. Carly greats you with joy and friendliness upon arrival and end ensures you have everything. Felicia hoes anove and beyond to make sure you start the day off right. The most amazing genuinely happy and friendly staff I have ever encountered. If the rooms were not so dated, It would have been 5 stars.
