Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Hotel going thru renovation, so large boxes in lobby and wall on our floor was being repaired (construction dust on floor). Elevator bell was too loud, so could hear it quite often in room. Room was clean.

First time in this hotel
Room had what we needed and was clean and very quiet. Beds were too firm (hard) for both of us. Could use better towels. Hotel is being renovated so boxes all over the lower hall. Breakfasts were OK. Staff seemed very small (like 1 woman on desk all the time but once). Plenty of outlets in the room. Small facility, adequate parking. Room had frig and microwave.

Staff is Great here!
Staff is great! There was a bit of construction junk, but understandable.
Everything on the breakfast hot food section was kinda lukewarm.

go somewhere else
When we arrived the Internet was not working so we had to wait a substantial amount of time before we got our room. The hotel is under remodeling and there is stuff scattered all over. breakfast was not very good and the staff were not very helpful.

NOT Clean!
The floors were disgusting. I went out to buy something to mop the floors with. We had water bugs, moths, and ants in our room. There was mold all around the shower and the shower curtain was yellow.

The night clerk put us in a handicap king room and would not switch us to a regular room after i showed her our reservation.
