Perfectly comfortable overnight stay
This was just a quick overnight stop over on our way to Canada but we enjoyed how comfortable and roomy everything was. We had a full size refrigerator in our room, a desk with two comfortable chairs and even a toaster. We slept so well. Everything was perfect!

Probably wouldn't stay here again
Our room had a funny smell. There were dog toys around the room (under the pull out couch and chair). We had to wait until the evening to get sheets for the pull out and then make it ourselves (not really a big deal but they wouldn't give us extra pillows for the bed). The bedroom sheets had what looked like dog hair on them. The beds (main and pull out) were pretty uncomfortable. It's a basic hotel. It was a decent price.

Good price, good in room amenities like kitchen and great staffs. However, can improve on the cleanliness and in my case, the dishes and utensils provided in the room were not clean. It could be that previous guests put them in the broken dishwasher and the housekeeper might have thought they were clean before putting them back in cupboard.

Horrible experience 👎👎
I checked in, and I was given an accessible room when I did not book that kind of room. My reservation was made 3 wks in advance. For starters, the TV wasn't working. So I called the front desk, and the attendant says he's coming to check. He comes in, and it doesn't work. He says he is going to get another remote. He comes back with two remotes and nothing. I asked him why I was given an accessible room when I did not book that kind of room. He says they have nothing else available, but mind you, I made a reservation 3 wks ahead. I did not say anything, and he kept trying to fix the TV. When I looked, there was a bug on the bed, and I told him. He brushed it off and told me I would switch rooms. So I packed all my stuff, and he gave me another room on the 4th fl. I get there; everything seems to be okay. When I jumped in the shower, the body wash bottle was empty. Horrible, horrible experience.

Did not like that the stove top barely worked. Coming in front desk staff was a little rude and off putting. Would stay again without kids.
