Comfortable beds, nice bathroom. Building needs TLC: wall paper pealing, carpet needs replacement, needs updating, furniture needs replacing. Building is well designed, perfect location, but needs updating and TLC.
Check in, we arrived right at 3 pm so there was a line, however many people in front of us were offered free bottled water and we were not, I did not ask for one either. The room was very fresh smelling, bedding clean, parking great right across from the concert I was attending. Free cookies and popcorn I saw were offered but I didn't take any. I would stay here again if I go to another concert.

Room was clean. Breakfast cost 12.99 a person so there should've been more at the buffet than what you get at other hotels for free.

Restaurant and Bar were closed due to illnesses. Hot tub is empty. Seems a little run down.
Our room was dirty, I believe housekeeping quit mid shift. I believe they made an excuse to move us rooms versus cleaning the roll in shower room that we booked. FD rude and uncaring like too bad for you. There were multiple ppl with room issues!
The breakfast choices are okay, but the food is just okay. It’s edible. The hotel was easy to get to. Check in was smooth and easy. The staff is wonderful there. My room was nicely appointed and very clean and comfortable. Overall a pleasant stay
