The hotel was overall good. The rooms are a little smaller than I'm used to seeing, and, because it's downtown, getting to it/finding it is a bit of a challenge. Overall great stay and would stay again.

The AC unit in my room wasn’t working. It took 24 hours for the hotel to respond back and then they wanted me to switch rooms which was very inconvenient. The pool was out of order, the fitness room didn’t have all the equipment operational the hair dryer in the room didn’t work. Not my typical stay at this hotel, I have been staying here for 7+ years.

Sandman didn’t make it to our rooms ☹️

Upon checking in we were told the pool and hot tub were out of service which was a huge disappointment to our family. We had 2 granddaughters that were looking very forward to swimming with my husband. Also, during the night, the A/C in all of three of our rooms seemed to stop working very well and none of us got a good nights sleep before our day of travel. Not the experience we were hoping for.
