Very friendly staff

Seems like an older property taken over by “Hilton” they did a makeover in the lobby to make it look revived and cool, but everything else is in shambles, one of the dirtiest and outdated hotel I’ve stayed in

Great place!

The biggest downside to this hotel is the noise. I could hear the guests above me walking about their room, conversations in the hallway outside my room, and the guest room doors slam shut rather than close quietly. Other than that, it’s a decent hotel. My room was clean and tidy, as expected.

Hip, cool rooms with modern decor. The game room with skeeball and shuffleboard was a huge hit with the whole family!

Professional, quiet and clean. The staff were positive and super helpful. I would definitely recommend this hotel and its crew

Room was dirty and there were bugs crawling in the bathroom. Staff was uninformed and did not seem to care.

We enjoyed the heated pool, although it wasn't that warm. Room was noisy with people above us especially

Great family friendly place, close to downtown

Liked the lobby, patio and bar area decor. Nice reception staff. Bartender had no personality; felt like I was imposing on him. Pool was dirty. Hot tub has no jets. Room was nothing special. Carpets were filthy and stained - just horrible. Made me wonder if they clean the toilets and showers. Way over-priced for what you get.

Clean and comfortable. A bit noisy from the first floor. Friendly staff.

Super cute hotel that’s super clean and great staff. Great price point as well!

Nice stay was able to check in early. Room was nice and clean. Will definitely stay again .
