The only thing about this place is the lobby was so very cold. The poor fellow managing the front desk also has to have a heater by him. He was so kind as to bring us a heater so we could at least wait for check in and stop our teeth from chattering.

Room didn’t even have a chair to sit in, instead you had to sit on the bed to watch tv or anything. The bathroom was TINY. If you’re a larger person, good luck! No heat. The bad was soft and the pillows were too much. Worst of all, NO COFFEE MAKER! Not even in the kitchen on the floor where we stayed. For me, that’s the deal breaker! We need coffee in the morning!

Clean and comfortable bed. Good location and assigned parking. Not the quietest place, as the hallways echo all footsteps and conversations. A rug in the hallway would do wonders.

Eh.
The staff was friendly at check in. I did have a hard time getting a parking spot to check in. They said I got the code through an email but I didn't see it. The bed was not very comfortable but it was really clean.

Crushed!
Disappointing… there was no coffee maker or any snacks to buy.. being a new hotel, it had zero incentives.. too expensive to have nothing! There was no room service so we didn’t get clean towels. Will not be booking here again

The location is great, rooms are on the small side, but the bed is comfortable. For the same price, which was very good, i would stay here again.

The place is nice don’t get me wrong, only thing is no tv service unless you have your own Netflix, Hulu, etc. Not even just the local channels so that sucked. Also the AC is kinda weird, there’s an app involved.

Liked: Cleanliness
My room was on the 7th floor and VERY noisy from the major highway just behind the hotel. The windows were closed but the traffic noise came thru the window shaker. There is no free TV or I should say no network TV. I was looking forward to a Thursday night football game but no such luck. The room was clean but small. The sink was plumbed with hot water on the right & cold on the left but was easy to figure out when the hot water never got hot.
