"Staff were wonderful. Despite the major renovations we felt welcomed and it made a quick stop on our travels into a nice and easy stay."

"I was very happy to not see dirty carpet. The room was clean and not bad for a place to sleep during bike races."

"The room was dirty, the carpet looked like it hadn’t been cleaned, there was no elevator for handicap/assistive people needs"

"A/C is not able to be controlled in room. It says “Unit Controlled By Wall Thermostat” but there was no wall thermostat. All the rooms are this way. So, the Mgr’s solution of changing rooms doesn’t solve this problem. The place just opened so he may not understand he has this problem yet. Our room showed 78F and 80F when we woke up first morning. We prepaid 2 nights but would not stay the second night because of this. It’s brand new so looks pretty clean, but we had a used Q-Tip in the floor of our bathroom and a coffee stain on a counter top. A/C is why we left. Mgr. would not refund our unused second night. I think langu@ge might have been a barrier to resolving it but he wouldn’t budge. Will contest credit card charge. Hundreds of hotels and this is only my first. Restive review. Good luck!"

"Very nice. convenient to our reunion location. will use again next trip."

"Check in was originally at 3 pm and there were several of us who had to wait over 30 minutes for rooms to be cleaned. Hot and cold water were inverted in the shower so that was a real pain to figure out. Room was clean and comfortable and close to dining."

"The walls are so thin it sounded like every noise was in our room. Breakfast was comical and nonexistent. Had a strange stale smell in the ac unit."

"Staff excellent "

"Clean, cozy, and the hosts went the extra mile for us. They had small birthday decor and a card set up when we arrived for my bf’s birthday. It was such a sweet unexpected gesture. "
