Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rooms are big with tall ceilings. I loved the full size fridge and kitchen area. I also really liked that there was a table with chairs and a recliner. It was a wonderful place to stay for a couple nights, especially with a little one and dog. Breakfast was very good and the man who was setting it all up was so kind. Only thing that I had an issue with was it took a long time for the shower to warm up. I thought I was going to have to take a cold shower but it did end up getting a little warmer after 10 mins.

Hotel was fine but several issues. Cons: Not enough pillows or towels for a family of 3 staying in a king suite. Poor (weirdly small) pillows. No dressor in the king bedroom - so no where to put clothes!! Was very strange - how a dressor was missing so could only hang items but not fold or have anywhere for socks, etc. This was a major drawback - when staying nearly a week and nowhere to put folded items. No conditioner in shower - need to ask front desk - cannot get from maid service (which BTW is only every 3 days). WiFi did not work on cell phone. The key card stopped working at least 1-2 times each day over our nearly week stay!! Very annoying to have to go down repeatedly to front desk for new activated card. Pool was cold (confirmed by 3 separate guests) and jacuzzi ok but not really hot. Weekend rate is costly for this type of hotel. Pros: Location good. Breakfast had nice variety. Room spacious and clean.

The towels were dirty - 2 out of 3 of them had stains. The room smelled like smoke and air freshener. The coffee was not good. The shower screamed the whole time it was in use. Staff was great, though. Parking lot was not maneuverable several hours after winter storm.

There was no staff to check us in when we arrived. We tried ringing the bell multiple times, called number, no answer. Walked around hotel, knocking on doors, nothing. About to give up and go to another hotel, and then someone came out. Waited about 30 minutes
