M Front desk woman was very nice, helpful and I don't blame her or thin k it was her fault BUT when I checked in I was given a key to a room that was already occupied?! I felt horrible to frighten the couple already in the room in bed watching TV. The situation was quickly remedied but I've never heard or experienced this type of oversight (computer system glitch?)

Very noisy at night! Wreaked of marijuana in the hall, elevator and outside. The cost of the room was astronomical and the place is so run down! No fan in the bathroom. Mold in the caulking around the tub. Toenail clippings on the carpet that the cleaning folks missed. I say, no way!

Expensive hotel with unavailable parking, I had to pay 100 dollars as extra amount for a small spot in parking, the parking does not have properly signs. Was so difficult to find the parking of the hotel, the help of the receptionist was not helpful. Poor attitude of the receptionist.

Nice stay

The room was amazingly quiet. The bed was very comfortable. The sofa was tired and not very nice when new. The bathroom was OK but not sparkly clean.

Staffs were great, friendly and very helpful. Parking on site with a fee. Johnny Rockets restaurant on the main floor. Room was clean, big, lots of space. The only con is that it's far from the main attractions.

Hotel is clean and conveniently located to my needs. Staff is friendly and professional. Bed and pillows are comfortable but the chair and sofa, not so much and had some stains. By myself do I did not need to sit there. Biggest miss was the breakfast at the in hotel restaurant-Johnny Rockets. Eggs tasted like powdered and toast only toasted on one side. Had to ask hotel staff to get a server to come out. So hotel is great, but I’ll get breakfast somewhere else next time.
