The hotel itself was lovely but it was very close to the highway and we could hear the highway noise. Also, a lot of car dealerships etc in the area. I should have done more research on the area. But as I said, the actual hotel was very good.

Hopefully things will be better.

Since the main entrance is under construction, the restaurant is used as the entrance. However, when we arrived, the restaurant was closed and we had to drive around the hotel a couple of times to find the entrance. The wing where our room was located felt really damp and so did our room. There were also spider webs in the room near the ceiling. Staff are all great and friendly.

we were late check-in almost 12 midnight and felt very tired unfortunately we were given the room that was occupied because my cousin tried to open the door and it was double locked. So I have to back to the reception to ask for another room.

While the staff was amazing and kept the place clean, the rooms are outdated and the bathrooms are the worse part. The shower knobs felt like they would break off and we got scalded every shower when the pressure changed while showering. Ridiculously low sinks, sad carpet and a squeaky bed finished off the experience.
