Convenient to downtown. Parking was tight but we found a spot. Front desk receptionists were very friendly. Hotel looked like it had been updated. Fresh ground by the cup coffee at breakfast was delicious and there were Keurigs in the room.

Although the staff at the front desk were kind and willing to help, our room was still not ready 1 hour after we were scheduled to check in. Since we were on a schedule, they gave us a different room, but it still was not totally clean. The carpet did not look fully vacuumed (there were bits of fast food on areas of the carpet) and there was dust and gunk on the table and in the corners of the room. The beds were clean, but the rest of the room looked like it was rushed through. We were only there for one night, so it wasn’t a big deal and we stayed, but next time I think we will book elsewhere…
