Sandra

Liked: Cleanliness
The staff for the most part was courteous. the young black girls that worked on and off spoke and were friendly when we came and went from the hotel. The large white lady and the medium sized woman with dark hair did not feel the need to meet or greet. The coffee pot was out of commission the last two days of our visit which was a real bummer. Last time we were at this motel (last year for a family wedding) the washer and dryer were out of commission, there seems to be a trend. Overall, the stay was okay--however this hotel could train some of its staff on customer relations and also hire a timely and responsive handyman. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable and the cleaning staff were affable and did a good job. The breakfast was hit or miss and not as good as last year so mainly we ate out.

Easy check-in, pool was open until 10, 24 hr fitness, great breakfast, easy parking. The person who checked us in, was busy--hotel was full and she was alone--but took the time to be personable, professional, speedy with the check-in process. A little mold in the bathroom, water pressure was low in the shower are the worst I could I find to complain about. Would stay again.

Had a great stay and the bed was the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. Our only complaint was parking. There was absolutely zero parking when we got back from a concert and that was due to semis and or trailers taking up multiple spaces:( we had to park over at the tru Hilton hotel and walk over.
