Extremely clean hotel, updated facilities, directly across the street from a hospital. Parking is a bit steep but I understand why given the location. It’s a really nice hotel and I had a very nice stay. One suggestion would be for the hotel to have hot water available. The Keurigs in room don’t make plain hot water and every time I asked it seemed like a big inconvenience for the staff. Don’t understand why there wasn’t a simple carafe for people so we could help ourselves and avoid bothering the staff. I will say it also seemed like not enough people were working here. Everyone was lovely but there were too few people. Otherwise, a perfect experience.

I was very disappointed in the condition of the room. The bathroom wasn’t very clean and Our bathroom door was stuck on the wheel track and would not move without force, my husband is disabled and could barely move the door himself When we asked for someone to look at it while we were gone, we were told that someone would come by to fix it, no one did and the entire trip we kept reminding the front desk and reminded them again as we checked out that the door still hadn’t been looked at. Secondly we asked for someone to come by and clean the room and for fresh towels and we never got that, we ended up not extending our stay at this hotel as planned and moving to another hotel for the reminder of the week. This trip wasn’t for pleasure, we were here for a family emergency and this just added stress to our stay
