Hotel was renovating. Did not know when we booked. Crews on main level and in parking lot. Rather messy. Dog barking half the night. We have stayed here multiple times and loved it. This time we were disappointed.

First night staff was wonderful, everyone other interaction was lacking. Breakfast was fair, warm items overcooked the first morning, but other options were ok. Shower messed up first morning and we called to advise of the water mess and request additional towels, when we returned that evening no one had come or cleaned or brought the towels. We dropped by the desk for the towels and they said they would send someone up with them. They did hours later. Extreme remodeling in progress, but relatively quiet considering all that was happening.

To start with I was not aware the building was under construction (which by the way starts at 7am). My key would not work on the side doors, the key would not work on my room door (maintenance fixed that and he was very nice). So after carrying my luggage to and from the front desk i finally got in my room. Due to the construction one floor below me the air and in room was gritty and the floors were too from construction dust. Im finally in my room and the smoke detector battery in the room next to mine was going dead…chirp…chirp. I talked to the front desk clerk about it and went to dinner. When I came back it still wasn’t fixed so I went back to the front desk and said this has to be fixed. She came up (she was very nice), figured out what room it was in and had maintenance come fix it (same guy, still very nice). Next morning I get up to the sound of construction below my floor (did I mention that construction started at 7) and have a class to go to but the class is over at 1130. I stop by the desk and ask the clerk if I can check out at 12 instead of 11. She started off by rolling her eyes and telling me that they don’t normally do that with everything that is going on. I told her not to worry about it. I would have my stuff out of the room shortly. I collected my belongings and happily left the hotel. Ive stayed here a few times and always had good experiences but i wont be making that mistake again, there are to many other choices.
