Close to Hospitals-Great Restaurant-Tired Rooms

Good location near hospitals. Restaurant and its personnel were exceptional. Overall, the hotel is tired and needs an update. The driveway entrance is obscured by overgrown trees/foliage and faded tile. It also serves as the garbage pickup and delivery area with a broad service gate left open all the time displaying abundant junk. There are some furnishing updates but significant remnants of dark older items. Wallpaper in room peeling. At the far end of the entrance near the meeting room there is beautiful new decor -- seriously considered expanding this to elevate the property.

This was a good place to stay. Room was clean and tidy. Checked in online but still had to go to the desk. Parking is underground and there were plenty of spots on Level 2. The pool was disappointing. It’s indoor, cood and quite small. Don’t expect to swim laps. The breakfast buffet was underwhelming for the price. Be sure to bring your breakfast voucher and tell the server you paid in advance.

My daughter was walked in on when changing in our room. Spoke with front desk and another attendant came in to our room without knocking shortly after. Very unsafe for our family. Spoke to supervisor Gabriel. They were going to work with Expedia to refund half of our stay due to our experience
