Our front desk person was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was a nice, quiet location. The breakfast was the best we've had at a hotel for breakfast and overall was just a great experience. The room was very clean - even the fold-out couch mattress was comfy!

Only problem was that the shower door was almost stuck open. Once we got it loose, it was fine as long as we didn’t slide it all the way open again.

Overall we enjoyed our stay though we were in town for a loved one's major surgery. We were surprised that we could hear noise in other rooms, dogs barking, children crying. But the 2 bdrm floor plan is excellent. The furnishings were very nice. Maybe need more ice stations. A warm cookie at the end of the day would be a nice addition. But we were happy with our stay.

Room was big, clean Breakfast was good just waited because they didn't have enough staff to accommodate the level of guests at 730 am. Poor guy needed help. SOS Family with crazy kids doing superman moves off the bed above us made it hard to fall asleep. Not the properties fault they tried to get the to calm down. Checkin was good, night clerk was hilarious. All and all a good stay ☺️

Found multiple roaches. Also had a handycap room with a shower that we could not use, the seat was broken and did not raise in the shower rendering it unsafe for us to use. Was not told at check in. Asked for another room, said they didn’t have any but would get it fixed. Never did for the 7 days there. Unacceptable

The room was exactly what we expected on arrival-very clean. We stayed 6 full days. During that time we received 1 service for clean linens & room cleaning. We had a barking dog across the hall for an entire day into the evening. Breakfast during the week had no variety, until our last morning. Coffee had a bitter taste all week. Any time we talked to staff, they were all very pleasant.

The young man that checked us in was positively delightful! The room was fine but it had a handicapped button. I assume that meant it was handicapped accessible However the toilet was so low no handicapped person could use it. The faucets in the sink were very difficult to operate. Other than those things it was a pleasant stay
