The staff and service were top notch. The only thing that wasn’t 5 stars was the sofa bed. It is in desperate need of a new mattress. I felt bad my son had to sleep on it.

The breakfast was wonderful, the location was good and somewhat close to downtown. The staff was wonderful and accommodating. Our bathroom had a strong urine smell and the bathroom floor was dirty. We were only there for one night so we didn’t make a fuss. The rest of the hotel was wonderful.

When we checked into the hotel on Monday, the front desk attendant(young African American female) (name possibly Christine) was having an issue with an disgruntled guest that felt that he had been charge twice for his room stay. The ordeal lasted almost 10 minutes. He was loud, animated and very dramatic. She remained professional and poised throughout the entire ordeal. She even took the time to print a copy of his bill to try to de escalate the situation. My husband and I stayed in the immediate vicinity just in case he got more hostile. After he finally left, she apologized to us and got us squared away. I commended her for her professionalism because I would have had him removed from the property for his poor and unacceptable behavior.
