Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Parking lot was not maintained, neither was front entrance. There was a sheet of ice on the front stairs and ramp. While using the lobby, I had a staff continously asking and confirming whether or not I had a room and was therefore a guest. The representative dueing check out was lovely, however, the remaining staff could use coaching on customer service. The hotel itseld is nice, the room was small but very clean and appeared to be recently renovated. Again, outside was in poor condition and unsafe.
