Very welcoming hotel service. From front desk associates, to the breakfast associate, it was a very welcoming experience. Thankful for the different breakfast options, clean & service were very good. Unfortunately, the room was not cleaned well. Bathroom and areas around the bed area needs improvement of cleanliness.

My family and I were given a "handicapped room". I don’t know why because none of us are handicapped. The shades were not working. Thete was not enough lights in the room. I understand that some handicapped people need room to get around. But, I also had booked a room with King Size bed and there was a wall mounted lamp that the handicapped room could have used. The closet had low poles for perhaps someone using a wheelchair but, again hanging up my coats and dresses became problematic. Those rooms need to be reserved for someone who is actually handicapped.

The lighting in the room was not great. Things were fine, and it had a little fridge and microwave if you wanted to use those things. But everything was just a bit dated/tired and in need of a refresh/update.
