This hotel was the perfect location for me. The continental breakfast had a lot to choose from. I did have one problem with my bathroom. However, when I notified the front desk it was fixed within 5 minutes. I would stay here again.

Staff was great, breakfast was good. The quality of the repairs made over the years is lacking. Poor trim work and lots of caulking over anything.
