The pool was nice. Parking on the premises I did not like for $45.00. No breakfast included. Roller shade in room needs to be replaced. Shower faucet needed upgrading. HARD TO FIND HOTEL FROM THE GROUND, NO SIGNAGE, AND NAVIGATION PROGRAMS ARE NOT SURE WHERE THE FRONT OF THE LOBBY IS. Otherwise, It was not bad.

My room was great! But it did not have a microwave or refrigerator few overnight things that needed to be refrigerated. Everything was lovely, clean and easy to navigate. There was a parking ticket issue I checked with person at the front desk the following day was resolved easily. It is nice to be in a place that is clean and bright, and when things go awry are handled with skill and grace. My overall stay was very enjoyable and I look forward to staying there again.
