The property was nice, and the area was great I didn't like it, only had 1 elevator, and I was on the fourth floor. If it were to malfunction, walking up 4 floors would be a problem, being 76 years old. The carpet outside the 4th elevator needs to be replaced. The breakfast was ok.

We had a fast check-in, the staff member was very nice and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. The only complaint is that the pool was not working but we were informed of this immediately which we appreciated.

VERY disappointing given our previous stays

From the minute, we stepped into the room it was a strong, musty and moldy odor, and the trim on the bathroom door was rusted through and looked absolutely disgusting

Not terrible but now worth $200 a night for non working pool, no workout room, ice maker didn’t work on our floor, bed mattress was not comfortable. Room had a few issues like shower curtain would not stay put during a shower, tub had some kind of massive repair in it. Also found a large earring in the kids bed, makes me think the sheets were not changed. Breakfast was good, staff was good. Location was great for what we needed.

A lot of work being done, fixtures wrapped in plastic, etc. The fitness center and pool were both closed for repairs also. Overpriced for what we actually received.
