Even though the first floor of the hotel was under construction, the room was immaculate, staff were friendly and helpful, and it was very quiet and pleasant. Would recommend staying there.

Clean rooms but place was a total mess because of construction. No coffee maker in room, phone didn’t work, shades didn’t go up and down, no breakfast available and was afraid to park in parking lot because of construction trailers and equipment everywhere.

You can hear everything. There was a large party staying and they were very loud. Couldn’t take it i had to call the front desk at 4 in the morning. Even after i called it took a little while before it was a little more quiet. The facility was also under construction. The room was nice and spacious. The front desk very helpful and courteous.

Property undergoing renovations so some features not available. Room was newly remodeled and clean. Only issue was lack of hot water for shower in morning. Otherwise it is a nice place and will be even better once renovations are finished.
