Terrible staff

The staff was unhelpful; they played on their phones the entire time and were not interested in assisting the guests. Don't bother valet parking, they just park it in the garage behind the hotel, save yourself the money and park yourself. This hotel is in a good location but next time I'll save myself the money and park stay somewhere else.

Waited an additional hour to check into room. Did not receive text, when I went to the counter I waited in line which was not a concern, however, a very rude man stepped in front of me and I stated that I was next. He wanted to argue the point and the clerk whispered to me I saw that you were next. I felt he should have kindly spoken up and I turned the bet rude gentlemen to please wait his turn. Otherwise love this hotel. Would come back.
