The staff were wonderful! The room we had was so small. It had a run down feel to it and there was a stain on our comforter. We also discovered almonds on the rug and we hadn’t eaten almonds😬.For the price we paid we expected a nicer room.

I stayed at the hotel for two nights for St.Patrick’s weekend. After all day of outing, I wanted nothing more than a nice hot shower. I received a letter behind my door that states that hot water was not working. The water was ice cold. I had to wipe myself with wet cloth because I couldn’t tolerate the cold water. The next day I had high hope that the hot water would be fixed, but this was proven to be wrong again. I felt so uncomfortable and dirty. I tried to shower again but the water was freezing cold, and it was simply too painful to do so. The hotel never check on me or my friends who stayed in a different room once. They also never notified us when the water worked again. They did not offer accommodation or compensation for our inconvenience, and I don’t think this is professional at all. Most likely will never stay here again or recommend this place to anyone I know.
