We arrived and only got to sit for a few mins before going out but when we returned we discovered the air had no knobs to turn it on and the room was stuffy. We also discovered the plug did not work in the drain. The front desk staff also had attitude upon check in. Will not be staying here again. Oh and also, the lobby smells like dirty carpet.

Qe booked this hotel for the pool and hot tub. Hot tub was out of order and the pool was too cold to swim in. The water in the shower was either scorching hot or cold. Gym was small and over crowded. Breakfast was okay.

Would definitely stay again.

Clean, comfortable, friendly. Within walking distance of a few decent eating options, and located out of the hustle of downtown but still close enough to everything the city offers. I was pleasantly surprised by the entire experience.

Upgraded!

I reserved a king size bed for the night. Staff came up after TV was acting up and couldn't get it working either. They offered me a different room and included a nice upgrade as well. Much appreciated!
