Sites need to be renovated. The last 2 residence inn suites have been poorly maintained and desperately need updating…bathroom ventilation, ac units, limited parking & no security was in the parking areas. The design of the rooms is inefficient. The door stuck to the frame and was difficult to open.

I can’t eat but breakfast looked good and I’d have enjoyed taking a giant bite of sausage and a large swig of orange juice. What I didn’t like … when booking the room , I asked to be close to the elevator. Of course, I was the furthest away from the elevator one could possibly be. Go Figure.
