Appear to be remodeling the room. No lights. Only power cords worked on one side of bed. No smoke detectors. The bathroom was clean but had broken tiles on the floor. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable and the hot breakfast was adequate. No complaints there. The wifi was terrible. We have iPads that rely on wifi, and every time we opened one to do something, we had to log on again and wait 5 minutes to be connected AGAIN. One of the rooms had a broken shower fixture, as well as a mislabeled bottle of shampoo. Not the end of the world but definitely a nuisance.
