Staff was nice and all updated areas were beautiful. The older areas are in dire need of updates still. Especially the elevator. We went up and the door stayed open for half the trip up. Not a fun feeling! The hot tub was not available which was a bummer. Breakfast was actually pretty good too.

Construction relegated the check in to a store room off of the parking lot. Room was clean but lacked a decent comfortable chair to sit in. Breakfast was good.

The room was fine, a little carpet is preferrable over cold tile floors. The bathroom needs better ventilation. Two chairs on the porch would work better than one for a visiting couple. The staff was friendly and helpful.

This hotel was under construction. We entered thru the garage.It was confusing. The room was newly re-done & clean. No water or coffee or cups. Kinda disappointing. Did not see staff other than in the breakfast room.

The staff was nice, and the room service people were friendly. The rooms seemed recently renovated and the furniture new. The lobby was under construction during our stay so everyone was using the staff entrance, so things were a little cramped coming and going, but that’s understandable.
