The best thing of this hotel was the young lady receptionist. She was helpful and kind. The hotel didn’t feel clean, and my bedding was stained when I got there. Also, getting an Uber, directed to this hotel was impossible. That was very inconvenient.

I highly recommend The Dextro Hotel! To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be this good, but it exceeded my expectations. I originally booked for three nights but ended up extending my stay because I enjoyed it so much. The location is quite convenient—just 15 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from major tourist attractions in downtown. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby, making it an excellent place to stay. At first, I was assigned a room on the second floor, but I could hear noise from outside, especially from the driveway. I went to the front desk to request a quieter room, and they accommodated me right away. The staff was quick, attentive, and eager to ensure my satisfaction. Special thanks to Paul, Ryan, and the other receptionist (an African American left-handed gentleman—sorry, I forgot his name!). They were incredibly friendly and caring, and I truly appreciate their efforts. I don’t want their kindness to go unrecognized! I highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

One of the two elevators was broken. Always a wait at the elevator and full. Suprised us with a $50 parking fee and theres a $20 breakfast fee per person. Most hotels include those for free. I Felt "nickled and dimed", but it was many dollars instead. Nice staff though, just employees, not their fault. Policy issues.
