I was asked if I wanted daily clean linen which I said yes since I was staying 4 nights. Well no clean service was done not even on the third night until I called front desk about it. On Monday morning they finally got to my room but only received clean towels and garbage removal they just did my bed and that’s it the sheets were still the same ones! My toddler had stained them that’s how I noticed they don’t changed the sheets! I was too tired to wait on them Monday night to switch them out! Also breakfast area is too crowded! And very simple one day it was only sausage and waffles no eggs at all.

Room was fine but occupants in room above us were bouncing a ball until nearly 1am. Took 2 phone calls to front desk to resolve. Breakfast situation sucked - went down at 9 (available until 10), room was jammed, virtually no food available, no milk, 6 deep waiting to use the toaster, fruit gone and not being replenished (put baskets away). Not the first time this has happened. Will never choose a rate that includes breakfast again - total ripoff. We left frustrated. Front desk and car valet were friendly, professional and helpful!
