The lady at the desk for check in wasn’t nice or helpful. We got there at 1:30pm and she wouldn’t check us in, which is fine, we were early. But parking is in a garage that you need a key to access. I simply wanted to move my car to a real spot so it didn’t get towed. It annoyed her that I asked. Mind you, it’s $27 to park at THEIR hotel. She reluctantly let me pay and get a key to access the garage. But she gave me a key that didn’t work and I had to back my car out of there and go back in and ask for a new one. And if you’ve ever seen their basement garage, it’s hard to back out of. The room itself was nice with comfy beds and the hotel breakfast was one of the nicest I’ve seen.

Breakfast buffet is good. Restaurant does not open for dinner. A/C broke the first night however it was fixed the next day. Didn’t feel safe to walk around the area.

The hotel overall was great. The suite we were in could benefit from a little TLC. The breakfast buffet was sufficient and the staff that took care of the buffet were on their game both mornings.

Elevator was sketch and I expected rooms to be nicer… and I thought I paid all the fees online but so many more fees just to park and fees just to stay there. Wil not be staying at this location again. Parking was a big hassle

Hotel was clean and comfortable. The lighting in the garage could be improved - it was relatively dim/dark - even for a garage.

I really enjoyed my day. The staff was amazing and it was very peaceful there. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family. They also allowed free transportation within a mile and a half radius. The drivers were amazing!
