The hotel is in a nice location, but it is completely run down and outdated on the outside. The rooms and the lobby were updated. I felt for the resort fee that they charge, there should have been more amenities.

Turned heat on upon arrival and it immediately smelled like something was burning. Walls are paper thin so had to hear disgusting noises by neighbors before sunrise, both mornings. The remote was filthy and we had to search for towels in the closet resting on top of the safe.

From the moment we walked into the property we were welcomed and treated like family. The facility was well managed and maintained. The manager we talked with, Freddie, was personable and knowledgeable - a real asset to the hotel. The location was perfect- close to downtown but a little quiet escape.

To be fair, this property is closing today for a 5 month renovation which in my opinion is much needed and long overdue. Furniture in rooms is very worn and outdated. However, staff couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful. Looking forward to coming back after remodel.

We stayed two nights at this property Oct 7-9 with European friends. The first night there was a storm and a large piece of construction material broke loose and banged loudly outside their room. Staffing is below par: bar area tables are not cleared (unless you do it yourself) and the breakfast shop had only one person working and was agonizingly slow for mediocre food. The staff at the check-in desk was friendly but they were unable to rouse anyone to light another fire pit for us. Overall, this feels like a downward trending but still expensive place. We cannot recommend.

When we arrived, they gave us a room that was supposedly an upgrade. Tried to walk in the room, the door to sticks. You have to put your shoulder into it to get it open. There’s a hole in the wall in the hallway,furniture was extremely outdated , there was mold in the shower and coming through the wallpaper. When I complained the night manager was nice enough to get us another room in the other wing of the building it was their model room, which was much nicer and clean, but not well laid out. They’re closing for a complete remodel in a few weeks. Thank God! With the amount of money I spent on that room even with a remodel I would never pay that again .
