The only thing for me, was I paid for breakfast for my entire stay. Due to renovations and change of ownership. I last 3 days. Which wasn’t a big deal due to Restuarant being close by. Everything else was good.

We had a great stay. Most of the staff were great. There was 1 front desk person that seemed to be very unhappy every time we saw her. Not helpful or friendly. She should work in an area that is not customer facing.
