Clean, quiet, and friendly staff. The small bar area with a few dinner options was perfect for a 1-night stay

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was in good condition but couch was uncomfortable for sitting. Staff person who registered us Friday night was rather brusque, so not a good introduction.
Room was nice. Parking easy. Hot tub was heavy on chlorine and burned my eyes so couldn’t stay long in it. Towels in bathroom were old/fraying and thin-my only real complaint. Breakfast very standard.
The rooms are very nice and the check-in went smoothly. Very tight security on the building. I self parked and was charged $25/nt. Which I wasn't expecting.
Nice and clean. Parking might be an issue. They charge extra for it, but I could barely find a spot. Large vehicles were parked in compact spaces. I was lucky a spot opened, but it was a hassle to deal with at night.

I think it's ridiculous to have to pay an extra fee on top of the price of the room to park my vehicle at hotel.
The breakfast was nice. Staff was exceptional. The woman that worked the morning breakfast worked so hard to keep everything full and she was so kind. We would definitely stay at this hotel again!
