Not bad but

Nice size accommodations, however, there were dirty utensils in the room and a big stain on the floor. Also, at checkout, we were leaving the room on time, and they locked the doors on us and then called and asked if we were going to leave. Not great customer service.

Shin at front desk is hindrance to the company.

The front desk shin was a total little prick. I would never stay or recommend this hotel to anyone. You should probably let him go before he runs off all your customers

Our front desk person was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was a nice, quiet location. The breakfast was the best we've had at a hotel for breakfast and overall was just a great experience. The room was very clean - even the fold-out couch mattress was comfy!

Only problem was that the shower door was almost stuck open. Once we got it loose, it was fine as long as we didn’t slide it all the way open again.

Overall we enjoyed our stay though we were in town for a loved one's major surgery. We were surprised that we could hear noise in other rooms, dogs barking, children crying. But the 2 bdrm floor plan is excellent. The furnishings were very nice. Maybe need more ice stations. A warm cookie at the end of the day would be a nice addition. But we were happy with our stay.
