This was our second visit in two years. The suites were refurbished three years ago, but are already showing wear and tear. The reception staff are excellent and were quick to send maintenance for issues.

I liked the location. I did not like that the room smelled super musty. The smell was so strong when I arrived I had to try and prop the door open but it didn't really help. The room would have been great if it was not for the smell.
