Early wake up

Hotel was fine for a quick overnight but we were given room 115 on lower level and starting very early in morning was chair dragging and foot stomping. I’m not sure if we were below the breakfast area but it was too early for us.

My room faced the exterior area of the hotel. They began painting the parking lot and doing maintenance work at 6 a.m., making a lot of noise and waking us up at that hour. I went to the front desk to file a complaint, and they told me there was nothing they could do. I wonder where the consideration for the guest is — they could at least wait until 9 a.m. to start the work so people can rest peacefully.

I only had one complaint and that was that they didnt give any indication they were going to be closing half of the parking to resurface the lot. So there were nit enough parking spots for all of the people staying at the hotel.

The staff were very rude. The elevator was broken and they didn’t want to tell us until we had paid. There was no parking due to construction and they told us it wasn’t their problem. They told us at breakfast was open until 930 but when we got there at seven, when they opened at six, there was no breakfast left and they weren’t going to refill it And the hot tub was disgusting

Clean and friendly staff

Our stay went very well, it was clean and the staff were friendly. But they need to hire more staff. I feel for the staff trying to keep up with the guests…we needed more towels but couldn’t get a hold of someone and the breakfast, it was a shame to see that staff had to struggle to get more food in stock.

Underwhelming

Really, the customer service at the check in and out was underwhelming. They weren't rude, but not personable. I don't need to be entertained, but there's def room for improvement on how they interact with customers. Elaborate, smile, say hello, etc.
