First time since new ownership. 360 degree improvement. Clean , friendly staff , rooms updated. It was really nice. Few snags but they will correct. Like ironing board , no iron , rooms without hairdryer. That being said you call the desk and they deliver to room right away.

Had a problem with the AC of the room not cooling. So we were sweaty the whole night while we are sleeping. Breakfast was supposed to be available at 6AM but they start opening at almost 8AM. You have to make your own pancake too which is why the line in the breakfast area was too long.

Minimal outlets for electronics. Clean comfortable bed and bedding, shower water was not hot. Free breakfast was not good, poor quality. Next time I’m in the area, I will pay more for a better stay.
