A SO-SO HOTEL

1. Check-in The front desk clerk was rather anti-cordial and was trying to speed things up to get me away from the front desk. This person show no level of hospitality. 2. QUALITY OF ROOM: The room had a socket on the wall that was extremely loose and unprotected by the sides I thought a fire was going to start. There were three loose wires above the door of the room. Those wires had some type of cap covering on them but still the wires were not secure nor protected from exposure. Using the heat to warm up the room, the heat was excellent. Toasty. Comfortable. Just the way I like it.

Average stay but usually excellent

I love this hotel and usually give excellent reviews all around. Just a few notes: the morning front desk staff is excellent; I found the evening staff slightly less friendly or helpful; my room was pretty chilly; having an extra blanket in the room would help. Other than that, it was another great stay.
