Nice and comfortable

Simple but good breakfast, the room was comfortable, the parking was pretty big, just the lobby is under renovation, so we had to use the next hotel attached to this one to get there, but in general, good experience

Room 312. The wall print beside the bed had something splashed on it, obvious it hadn't been cleaned. I was also able to write clean me in the dust on top of the microwave and the walls near the garbage can in the bathroom could use a wipe. I was in an accessible room with a walk-in shower. While I did not require this room going in I almost did coming out because the shower curtain is way too short and did not contain the water within the shower area which made the bathroom floor extremely slippery as the little towel they give you for the floor was not sufficient. That said, the bed was comfortable, and the room was quite large. No bacon at the breakfast and the sausage seemed like a low quality brand. The selection of muffins, etc was good. Lastly, the hotel lobby is under construction and the banging started not long after 8:00 but in fairness didn't last that long. Just long enough to wake me up.

The hotel was under construction while we were there. We had to check in and out at the hotel attached to ours and then walk to our room through a construction site. The hotel attached to ours provided the breakfast, and although it was very nice, it was very crowded and difficult to find a seat....very disappointing.

Would have appreciated notice of construction in the main lobby. Had to checkin at neighbouring hotel. Stayed on the 5th floor and it was still dusty in the hallways. Room was nice, newly renovated but the blackout screen was broken. Free parking was nice and right outside the farmer’s market gate.

The construction going on made it very awkward to get to our room. The breakfast was good but very busy. If I had known about the construction I might not have booked with this hotel and gone elsewhere.

Nice hotel, close to the farmers market. Big rooms, bathroom was a little old (shower) but otherwise nice. Friendly staff. Pool needed to be reserved in advance. Rooms not super sound proof you could hear people above and next door at times. Free breakfast but little to no vegan options which was a downfall. Free parking.
