The staff were consistently friendly and helpful. My only complaint is how hot the hallways were, it seemed as though no air was flowing in the hallways on the guest floors. The breakfast was $11.00 and was surprisingly decent for a hotel buffet style breakfast.

Location worked well for us working at the university. Parking was expensive and the garage is tight. You need a reservation to use the pool because apparently it’s “too small” to allow guests to just use it. Complimentary coffee & tea was out for a very limited time. No lotion in the rooms as part of the amenities. Just an overall average stay at an expensive rate. They really should try to do better for the price.
