Excellent overnight stay

We had a nice room overlooking the dam. Parking was easy. When we entered the room, the air condition was on, making it nice and cool for sleep. Coffee was free in the morning before we took off for a 2-hour drive. The staff were friendly both in the morning and in the evening when we checked in. The lobby was comfortable and welcoming. The linens were good and the blinds were sun blocking for sleeping in.

Noise is a problem. Initially I was given a suite on the ground floor but the sound of guests walking non-stop upstairs was too prominent. The staff was nice enough to move me to the second floor in the older wing that had a nicer view of the water. Unfortunately the walls are thin as well, we could hear the couple next door fighting (with some cussing) ‘til 9pm and every slamming of doors at nearby rooms. We left around 7:30am and found some guest did not clean up after their dog’s mess on the staircase. The price is okay but I think I’ll just pay a bit more next time.

The room was clean and had all the amenities I needed. It would be a nice touch to have complimentary water in the room or offered at check-in along with a cookie. :) The staff were very friendly, and there’s complimentary coffee available in the lobby as well as plenty of parking. There’s a good restaurant onsite, but not much else close by, you’ll need to drive at least 10 minutes for other options.

The room above us was very noisy with kids. We ignored it but at night it was difficult especially since many rooms were vacant. Why were we placed like this? Our room's floor hadnt recently been cleaned. There was a film on it making your feet dirty. The shower was clean but def needs updating. Thank you for everything.

Location is east of town but OK. Seems to recently refurbished inside. Landscaping is unimpressive. Be sure you know breakfast is not included and that the “ cafe” in the lobby is not worth considering. Staff were pleasant. Restaurant was fine.

Everything was wonderful. The room was clean. The restaurant was so good, reasonably priced and very nice staff. The hotel was very quiet which was really nice. The tv was interesting but once we figured it out it was ok. We would have really liked it if the restaurant had been open for breakfast.
