Food was not even warm. you are not using the right warmers with the pans. I was informed the staff make the coffee weak and to use the espresso machine. My second day they were out of some items. Staff were not very friendly. I do not believe there is a parking space for every room.

The room was fine but the staff forgot to relay the late checkout that was requested so they banged on the door at 11am and tried to enter the room. After the 3rd return of the banging staff we opened the door and explained the late checkout request. They did apologize for the banging.

This hotel was in a convenient location, safe and had an efficient, friendly staff. The hot tub was awesome in the rain. I really appreciated it. The breakfast was great and the attendant was so friendly. The only aspect I didn’t like was the metal frame on the bed that made a clanking noise. It was a little to firm for me-but I know I like an extra soft bed. I would recommend this hotel with their excellent t staff anytime you’re in the area!
