Enjoyed the stay. Property and room were clean, BUT the sink in bathroom in our room drained very slowly and the water that backed up in the sink was unsavory.

Do better
Old lettuce and radishes were left in room from previous guest. Room smelled sour. About 6am the kitchenette sink drain started making a loud gurgling noise. Elevators seemed to have a mind of their own. A lot of lights on the 4th floor only had 1 bulb working. Left my sons baseball jersey in hotel room after check and customer service after was horrible.

Arrived to check in only to be told they didn’t have a room for me because the hotel was “overbooked”. Keep in mind I had made a reservation weeks ago and had a card on file to “guarantee “ the room. There are many other options in the area I strongly recommend trying any of them before wasting your time with this business .
