The front staff was very passive aggressive. Especially the woman in the front. We drove 8 hours and get there and she ruined our stay be for us started when asking general questions about the local area. We were reassured later in the elevator it wasn’t just us. Another gentleman had the same complaint about her the day prior. Lastly, the air conditioning units do NOT go below 74 to conserve energy. Needless to say we had a very unpleasant experience.

The hotel is currently undergoing renovations; however, the room was completely refurbished and clean. We interacted with very little staff—just the front desk and valet parking. They really ought to take this opportunity to build a proper parking area; the hotel needs it. Aside from that, we have always liked this hotel—we last stayed here six years ago. Highly recommended.
