It's well-sited for transport (highways, airport, downtown), the staff is great, and the beds were pretty comfortable. There was a humidity issue- a dehumidifier in the hall outside the room looked like it had been there for a long time and was constantly full. Similarly, the sauna wasn't working and the paper "Out of Order" sign looked pretty old. Bathroom wasn't great- low water pressure. Also, the light switch was a motion sensor. Fine, except I decided to take a bath and the lights went out. Had to get out to trigger it. Still- overall a good hotel.

The girls at the front desk were so super friendly. I had a couple extra requests for our multiple and rooms and they answered my questions and accommodated the best they could. I was very impressed.

Pros:Front desk clerk was very friendly and helpful. Room was quiet and comfortable. Good variety of breakfast foods and drinks. Cons: Dirty Q tip was in the hallway in front of my door. Toilet paper holder was hanging off the wall. WiFi was horrible! You would lose signal every 30 seconds or so. No ice machine on the 4th floor.

I checked into the hotel around 1:20 am on 8/19/2025, and while the staff were very friendly, I was surprised by how my request for a late check-out was handled. When I asked if I could check out later, I wasn’t given the chance to fully explain my situation. My request was immediately declined without consideration. Given that I checked in so late at night and was extremely tired, I had hoped to rest a bit longer—at least until 2:00 pm. Unfortunately, I was required to check out by 11:00 am, which felt unreasonable under the circumstances.

The hotel was not at the address on the web site and the phone number from the website and Expedia did no work and showed on caller ID as a Best Western. I had to pay for a room at another hotel.
