Very Good

The hotel is pretty quiet and clean. There is plenty of parking and there is also a McDonald next door which is walkable to the hotel. They serve hot breakfast in the morning.
I was well rested at this hotel. Customer service was great. Check in and check out was great. The other thing was too have more hot food breakfast selection. But overall good.
The day was fine until 4 AM when people were moving into the room above us. It sounded like they were moving furniture for 15 minutes. Finally I called the front desk and the gentleman said he would check into it. No change for another 15 minutes. I called again and he said a family of four with a dog I checked in. He informed me that the walls and ceilings are not very thick, so sound reverberates? I do understand that; however, I don’t know why the noise was not addressed. I understand there is some noise when getting settled in a room. But considering the amount of noise they were making, it should have been looked into. Sound them like things are being thrown across the room for a half an hour!

Disliked: Amenities
Wi-Fi failed to work on our MacBook. Spent almost an hour on phone with their I.T. with no resolution. The clerk said it wasn’t their problem because Expedia arranged the purchase.
The staff were very nice and they kept the hotel very clean breakfast was good and so was the breakfast staff. Very dog family didn’t mind my pomsky coming in talking and barking to say hello at everyone. I stayed here before and will do every time I’m in Dover.
