Nice Place to stay, room was clean and the staff was very good. The young man and young lady in the bar were excellent on the night of 02/07. The only that was a problem for me was there was no coffee or tea amenties before 7:00 am, but the young man at the front desk on 02/08 went and took care of us. Very impressed!

We stay her quite a bit - they really need to up the housekeeping and room inspection. We had to be moved as soon as we got there because the heat was not working. The second room we were put in had no blow dryer - we found it eventually in the closet. There was no options for alcohol and only one pod for the coffee maker. The doors on the shower dont work so the door leaks all over the floor. It doesnt look like they have cleaned the windows or sills in quite some time. It is a nice hotel they just need to clean it better.
