Everything about the hotel was super…except the air conditioning in our room. Unfortunately it never got all that cool and stayed humid for most of the night. The unit itself was very loud. We didn’t call to the front about it because technically it was working, just not that well. Everything else was fabulous.

I stay in hotels two to three nights a week across the country. This property stood out for its cleanliness, welcoming staff, and well-appointed room with great amenities. My only concern was the air conditioner. It was unusually loud, making it hard to fall and stay asleep. If that were addressed, it would be close to perfect.

Was charge $504 twice on my bank statement from the hotel. When I called to speak to management they are advising they only charged card one time & to contact 3rd party. They are assuring only one charge was charge even after I’m showing them proof I was charged 2 times.
