Great value for the price

This is the second time we've stayed at this hotel and we've been very happy with it. The 2 queen bed suite is very roomy and the beds are really comfortable. I really like the bedding. The sheets are so soft, the comforter has enough weight to be cozy and the pillows are great. I utilized the gym and hot tub. The hot tub was one of the main reasons we stayed here. Breakfast was okay. They have the waffle maker and several hot options. I was hoping there would be some healthier options like hard boiled eggs and Greek yogurt but they only had the powdered scrambled eggs and regular yogurt. The man who checked us in was very personable.

Discouraged

Overall the stay was good. Although we stayed two nights, the first night the people above us was running and jumping through what sounded to be their entire room. Until well after midnight. Saturday night I finally called the desk because it was happening again. Front desk said they would call up there but it never stopped. This went on till about 2am or so. We had a baby in the room that kept getting woke up by the noise upstairs.

Rooms were comfortable and clean. Quiet location. Staff was extremely helpful and accommodating, but several times I had to wait at the desk before staff would come out from the office, including having to call for help. The outside sidewalk and parking lot was extremely icy and hazardous. The breakfast area was clean and the food was good, although the coffee needs improvement. I had multiple problems with my room key, requiring reprogramming.
