Stayed 2 nights

The only problem I had was if I didn't put the bolt on the door wouldn't stay shut or locked when in the room and I had to pull it closed when leaving problem to make sure it shut..They also said free breakfast on the page I booked from but they just had coffee. Also it was a little confusing that another hotele is almsot connected to the property. I always felt like I was entering the wrong hotel.

Desk staff was friendly and attentive. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations and hopefully the room I stayed in is still on the list for updates. Everything was clean and neat but the room finishes (baseboards, paint covered outlets, worn curtains, etc) made the room look a little sloppy. Pets are allowed in the rooms but I could hear a dog from the next room whining and barking until late in the night, it broke my heart. All of the room and hotel amenities were well kept and in working order.

Stayed 1 night

When I placed my laptop on the night stand near the window and used the ottoman for my mouse, I noticed a used plastic drink glass laying on the floor next to the bed support. We did not disturb it and just ignored it. I forgot to tell the front desk that it was there. May be the next room cleaners will find it. We did not use the bed that it was next to so we were not bothered by its presence only being there for one night. Otherwise the room was very clean. I just did not want the ones cleaning the room to think that we left it there.

Decent room, decently clean. Difficult to review because they were in the middle of renovation (& construction work) during our stay. Not as nice as I'd expected but maybe it'll improve with the reno. Front desk staff was the friendliest guy I've encountered at a hotel desk, excellent service.
