The staff were really friendly. It was a nice area for the hotel with lots of shopping around. Easy parking and quiet area for the hotel. The pool was really cold. We stayed four days and only went swimming because it was so cold. The breakfast corner did not have enough tables for everyone. We would have prefered to eat our food off a porceline plate (not paper) and metal utensils. I missed that for a more house feel.

The hotel was clean with a very good breakfast. However we booked this hotel because it advertised an indoor pool. When we arrived we were told it was out of service. We had booked the room only 1 week earlier. The pool had been closed for over a month. No discount… not even a sorry. We were told they have now put a disclaimer on their website. We booked through Expedia and nothing shows up saying pool closed. Very disappointed.

Breakfast was good and plenty. Parking is plentiful but the spots are a little tight even for sedans. Need more charging stations as these parking spots are even tighter than regular spots. Should have more electrical outlets for use when the 2 chargers are occupied. There should be a sign telling guests to drop off their key cards when checking out instead of waiting for the one staff at the desk to serve them.
