Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
It was hard to find, but the staff helped us find our way there. There was no microwave or fridge in the room. Breakfast had to be bought at their cafe. And it was very expensive. The room was nothing special except for a few interesting furniture items. There was no TV guide. Had to walk over to the lobby to ask. These may be smalI things but you would have thought, for the price, you would have gotten more. We have stayed at much cheaper hotels and gotten so much more. We will never stay there again.

Decent, no frills place. Looks like a converted Holiday Inn motel, and it’s fine. I like the lobby/coffee bar. Gym is in desperate need of updating.

The bathroom was very dirty and the floors were dirty. The doors looked like they had never been wiped off. The shower was pretty disgusting as well. We had to wear socks to keep our feet from getting black from dirt.
