We've stayed there many times in the past and will probably continue to do so. It is convenient to our family in the area, as well as shopping and restaurants. The staff is very friendly. The nice young lady even remembered us from about 4-6 months ago. Nice touch.

Great but mixed

Front desk person when we arrived late in the evening was excellent-welcoming and both personal and professional. Room was clean, beds were comfortable, etc. Great start! The downside? People on our floor were slamming doors until well after midnight and before 6am—really interrupted a restful stay. Also, the next day when I talked to the front desk about club member things I could hardly understand him-his accent was so thick.

I liked the convenience of the property as it is near to my family's home and also shopping and dining. They also served a very adequate breakfast each morning. The only thing I did not care for was that they did not service our room daily. They did not make the beds, clean the bathroom or change out the used towels. Also, the grade of the toilet paper was extremely flimsy and cheap.
