The Hotel was nice and clean. However, i did not have any hot water all weekend. There was a false fire alarm pulled. The air conditioning was broken. Also, i was charged 2x for the room. The manager gave me the run around and placed me on hold all day and never returned my call. I had to call the corporate office to start a case. The case takes 48 hours to investigate. Which takes 10 days after the investigation to get a refund.

Staff was friendly and great! I loved the room and bathroom, and if you happen to forget your soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion they provide Dove products. The only issue we had was the limited parking after dark, but other than that it was a great stay!

Good location but…

Clean hotel in a nice location. Unfortunately, lots of noise due to some kind of sorority function or other. Also, the hotel needs more luggage carts given the number of guests staying at this location.
