Staff was very helpful! There were a few things that needed a touch up though. The ice machine was leaking very badly, one of our tvs didn’t work (we didn’t complain as we didn’t need it in our room) and the breakfast was ok, but they didn’t have much of what they were serving. Will stay there again though! Great staff and clean property

Hannah

Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was clean, comfortable, and very large with the kitchenette and living/dining areas, but things were a bit worn. I checked in on a Thursday and out on Monday and was out of the room most of the day, but housekeeping did not appear to come at all. I was a solo traveler, so didn't make that much trash and had plenty of towels, so I did not ask anyone about it. Free breakfast was standard hotel fare, but convenient. Hotel wifi was inconsistent in the room. Water pressure in shower was excellent, but not super hot. I felt very safe and the location was convenient to the friends I was visiting nearby!
