The Room was clean, the staff was friendly, but the hot tub was out of order with no signage letting us know. When we asked front desk they said they were aware but had no idea when it would be repaired which was disappointing.

The ice machine on the second floor needs to be cleaned. It is unappetizing to use in its current condition. The carpet in the room needs to be cleaned. The shower floor should be reconditioned. There was an end table in the room that had to be replaced because the moldings on the edge was falling off.
