Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
They had entrances blocked off for easy drop offs for disabled people. Long walks from parking garage. Had disabled parking lot closed and barricaded off. Staff and security had no idea why things were blocked and barricaded
The staff is very nice and it is very clean, what I didn’t like was the shower curtain; it’s small and the water spills out of the tub when you’re taking a shower.
The staff was ready and responsive to assist with my check-in. The credit card reader was causing a delay so we moved to a different device and everything went smoothly. Very friendly and courteous staff. The lobby and elevators were clean and tidy. Only complaint was the stained bed linens and pillow cases. Also, material from the bottom of the bed mattress was coming out. Since my room had two beds, I used the other. A slight minor convenience but I would return.
I like that the room was very clean and quiet. The staff was nice and greeted us with a smile. Felt very comfortable and safe. Also, close to the mall and other stores.
We really enjoyed our stay.
Thank you
It was not mentioned anywhere that at 1:15am and then again at 4:15am the horn of a train would blast through the city. There’s nothing quite like it! Great for the heart.

Staff checken was great. Breakfast was very good. Property was being renovated with a lot of construction on floors that had guests. Pool needed to be cleaned. Hot tub jets barely worked.

Tisha is Great
The room needed counter tops cleaned but the big thing was we found the door didn't latch so when we left you couls push the door opened. Found this in the morning but Tisha, the acting manager, took care of us so all is good
