It was not so good. I’ve stayed many times but not too happy. I didn’t have access to get into my room and had to keep going to the desk about my keys not working. It was frustrating because I had plans and it slowed me down a lot.

We could not turn off the fan system in our room. It ran loudly all night and made for terribly disruptive rest. Would not stay again as a result.

A wonderful experience

It was a terrific experience. There was some street construction going on so the parking was a bit of a walk but that was not the hotel's fault. The staff were friendly and ready to help with anything. The bar and restaurant is absolutely one of the best perks. The bartender, waitresses and costumes were friendly and personable. The food and drinks were to die for. The breakfast was devine and the overall cleanliness was outstanding!

A must stay

This place was amazing! The front desk staff was so accommodating. Our flight was canceled, I called the hotel, and they let us check in early. That was a stress relief on its own. I would highly recommend!

I don’t ever leave reviews but I’m going to because I was pretty impressed with the whole experience and cleanliness. Reasonably priced as well. I have worked at a very nice hotel for years so it takes quite a bit and usually a lot more money to impress me but i was extremely happy staying here and would stay again. My room smelled great and for the most part extremely clean, the only thing that could’ve used a little better attention was the bathroom. Don’t get me wrong, it was cleaner than a lot of other hotels but i found a couple hairs on or in the tub and looked as though around the legs and under the bathroom vanity was possibly missed during cleaning. I was also quite surprised to be able to here the guests above me talking clearly, I was woke up a few times throughout the night from them moving around and/or dropping something that startled me awake because it was loud (not blaming the hotel) Breakfast was a usual full hotel breakfast but was clean and laid out nice with everything well stocked. I really liked their coffee machine. I was able to get a café latte with a double shot of espresso. Yum! Keep up the good work!!!!
