Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
When we got to the hotel, I was charged more than a $50 deposit and no one could tell me why. There was no hot water in the water pressure or shower was not even existent when we called the front desk. They said someone would be there in 30 to 45 minutes to fix our issue. No one ever showed up.

Great property with updated rooms. We enjoyed our stay. Small gripes include the sink being clogged which was a little frustrating, but everything else was wonderful!

Annette

Disliked: Cleanliness
Like if someone wanted to make chic an old motel but didn't know how to do it. Toilet/shower separated from vanity by a fabric curtain, but the vanity is completely open to the rest of the room! Cheap window shades don't fit window properly, so light entered the room all night. Staff got exasperated with me when I asked where the room coffee was- who knew it would be in an armoire? Parking is in 3 rows, so beware negotiating to your space in front of your room. A/C unit load as a freight train. Bring an eye mask and ear plugs.

The room was clean but did not look like the Expedia pictures at all! Also, the water pressure was non-existent and you had to turn on the hot water and wait up to 15 minutes for it to get warm (they have a sign taped to the shower door). We were on the first floor and the noise from people walking above us was terrible.
