The pool area was very spacious. Free coffee and ice cream in lobby was a bonus! Room was clean and well equipped. The staff was pleasant when confronted but did not initiate friendliness. Location is perfectly situated downtown. A area shuttle from hotel to downtown for walking impaired would have been helpful but was not available.

Everything was great. The location was perfect for walking to all restaurants. Pool and gym area was nice. Rooms were clean. Beds and pillows were too soft. While in the rooms you can hear any activity in the halls. Wouldn’t stop me from going back though.
