I loved being able to book a 2 bedroom suite. The room seemed freshly remodeled. The overall look of the lobby, hallways and suite was impressive. Unfortunately, there was definitely a lack of attention to some details. In the freshly tiled bathroom, there was leftover grout all over the tiles. There were no hooks or a towel bar in the bathroom or sink area. The bed was very comfortable but the sheets were scratchy. The breakfast was decent. The front desk staff was amazing! For what we paid, I would recommend this hotel, even knowing that some things still need improving.

The door to the bathroom was not aligned correctly and it was hard to close. The new carpet had a very strong smell to it. The smoking area was right at the front door so you had to walk through cigarette smoke and smell. Breakfast was just okay. They were doing construction during our visit. There were mattresses laying out by the dumpster. We won’t be staying there again.
