Place looked the part, but everything else was a missing puzzle! No free parking anywhere, website said valet and height resticted parking, not that part was a charge. The pet friendly site, did not give but a water bowl and dog walking area 2 blks away. The website said The Living Room served dinner and kitchen closed at lunch. All staff was new, no one knew where to walk the dogs or where the ice machines even were and i generally dont pay attention to thus detail, but it was clearly pegged to be extremely upscale hi-end, and the gentlemen had a nose ring. There was no parking to ck in or other. I went to the living room just to get a diet coke to make a cocktail in my room....i was never addressed once by the bartender bc she had a dinner party going up to a small banquet room. I had to go to another area and address the issue just to get a diet coke. We had been on the road traveling 11 hours with pets, it was a very long day.

The bathroom was busted all the time that I was there. I couldn't take a shower because the sewer drain line was clogged. I called them many times to their front desk and nobody really replied. When I left in disgust The sewer line was still clogged. They really need better maintenance and they shouldn’t rent these rooms to guests

The hotel was great, the decor, service from staff was very good. I would def pick this location again over the 3 other places in town I have stayed. Only issues: shower head needs replacement and for gods sake spend 50cts more on toilet paper. You could be a superstar with basic inexpensive upgrades
