Staff were friendly! Faucets in bathroom showroom were not working. The toilet would run after flushing. Hot tub was not working and unfortunately the area had bottles and a bit of garbage around. There were no towels in the pool area. House keeping had the room clean.

I reserved via Expedia for a hotel that would allow dogs and include breakfast, however I was informed that breakfast was not included for Expedia booking. Also the AC was not working very well which made sleeping very difficult. There were also renos happening so it got noisy and messy on our floor

Fair value. Stayed in a suite, room size is good. Air conditioning unit is extremely noisy and cannot cool the entire suite. Bathroom was newly renovated, definitely well done. Wanted to make a coffee, all three coffee cups (disposable) were stained.

This is an outdated property. It does not accommodate anyone with mobility issues, with multiple sets of stairs and the elevator at the far end of the building from the desk. The air conditioning in the building hallways is either absent or inadequate. The air conditioning in the rooms adjacent to the pool area is inadequate and the room was stuffy and humid. Our check out took about 20 - 30 minutes, including a 10 minute wait for the desk clerk who was busy with other duties. Breakfast is available but NOT included. The breakfast room was locked, so each guest had to be admitted individually, and there was an additional charge on our final bill for each breakfast. We will not be returning or recommending this Sandman location.

Our shower did not work, nor did the phone in the room. I asked the front desk to either come take a look at our shower, or look into switching our room, and they did neither. When I checked out, I brought this to their attention, and they did nothing to remedy the situation. Would not return.
