This property has performed an act of false advertisement. Me and my family chose this location because on the Orbitz site its a swimming pool included in the photographs and while checking in I asked about the pool and was told it's no longer a pool I was highly disappointed because my family and I was looking forward to swimming on the property.

Fortunately there was a brewery of fine quality a 15-20min walk away or five minute drive away. Inconsistent breakfast time enforcement. Pool was advertised but was not a thing. Hotel room carpet had minuscule sharp pieces of tile or something in the carpet. Bathroom door at the floor was rotted. Side walk was on the other side of the busy af street. I made do, but will not return.

The young lady at the front desk, Emily, was fantastic. They had a slight hiccup with the elevators and she quickly came up with a room on the ground floor. She was very helpful helping us find a restaurant. BUT... The bath tub doesn't drain well. I'd recommend this hotel to others and we'd stay here again.

Convenient off the highway

Emily at the front desk was friendly and welcoming. Hotel is right off the highway which is convenient but it also means there is nothing to walk to. one of the elevators was out of order which was inconvenient. Oddly there was no soap dish in the shower.

Decent experience

Good location, with low road noise considering how close it is to a major interstate. Decent breakfast. Lots of little issues with the room - crooked/loose toilet paper holder, broken hook on back of bathroom door, ripped comforter on bed, only 1 operational elevator. I would stay here again, but not with my family. We were on the top floor and there were multiple times over our 3 night stay when the "roof access" door was left open and a very apparent 'smoke' smell filled the entire top floor.
