The front desk was extremely helpful and went above and beyond. The breakfast was amazing. But the room was old, it was noisy, the bathroom was in bad shape, the soap and shampoo dispenser was empty. It just needs to be cleaned up a bit. But the employees were wonderful! Location is great if you need a close to airport hotel. But it was still expensive!

It was clean, had shuttle sevice but an older property. Rooms needed renovation. Breakfast started at 7:00 a.m. i had to get to the airport at 6:30. You should see how many of your customers have to leave before you start breakfast.

Property is ran down. First room assigned had a running toilet. The front desk lady was very nice and accommodating and switched out the room right away but when I arrived in that room I had to report that the curtain was badly ripped. Throughout the night the refrigerator was loud not allowing me to fully rest.

Disliked: Amenities
The woman at the desk was very friendly and helpful. The elevator needed to be vacuumed. The room was nice and clean but there was a prong from something broken off in one of the bathroom outlets. Breakfast was a fail. When I went down the coffee was empty, the decaf was cold, the half and half was empty. There was no eggs or sausage. The butter was empty. We ended up just going out to breakfast. The parking lot was old and run down and the river view from the deck was blocked by an old chainlink fence. It feels very unloved.
