It was easy to check-in and out. Room was clean. Had no problem finding parking. Plus, the parking lot was lit so I felt like my car was safe. Hoping this was only a one-time thing but at 2am a bunch of guests came and spent well over an hour blaring music in their room and out at their cars talking/laughing very loud and drinking beer.

Everything was good with the property & staff The only issue was with Expedia on the intail booking. Because of this me and my family had to stand outside in the snow and cold for additional 2hours because Expedia never completed the booking after they even discuss with me over the phone and confirmedall information is correct and that was it.

The hotel room is okay. I am not sure if the bed sheets were all change. It really needs a general renovation. I will suggest to change the appliances and the furniture, especially the lightings. The vibes that I got from my room was just depressing. It really looks sad. If I have the money, I will invest in this hotel and will make it more presentable.
