The check-in process was smooth. We were greeted, stay was nice. When I was checking out both of the front desk staff did not greet or acknowledge me. The lady did not speak to me except you’re all set. Didn’t ask if I need a receipt or confirm if there’s any additional charges like parking fees since I asked.

Arrived after midnight. Staff was welcoming and check in was quick. Nice hotel & room. The motion lights on the base of the nightstands would light up throughout the night which was annoying & inconvenience but other than that it was ok.

Its all about the first impression My family and i were welcomed by a great front desk member called Martha drew a smile on our face immediately when she welcomed our kids with cute hotel stuffed bear and made their day She Was always helpful with any request asked Room was clean Requested baby crib which they sent one right away although crib was not well maintained ( paint faded and scratched maybe 10 year old crib ) They have self parking available which we unfortunately did not feel safe parking there as we felt it was kinda far from the hotel and lights were dimmed at night we had to switch to valet parking ( great and fast service ) Overall we where satisfied with our one night stay and will be coming back for another staycation

Hotel was appealing at first with friendly staff, but very small bathroom, towels were not clean in the bathroom, and no toothpaste stocked in bathroom.
