Beautiful, clean, newly remodeled Hotel. Looks great. Clean rooms. Only thing lacking here is the not so friendly staff. They just dont show any eagerness to help you with issues!

Staffs were friendly and attentive. Clean and cozy room, had pretty good sleeps. Breakfast spread is great too. About 10 minutes walk to get some food nearby.

Customer service is not up too par, me and a coworker are staying here for a couple nights and after a 12hr work day we come back to a notice saying we have been charged $250 cleaning fee cause it smells like smoke even though we don't smoke. When I spoke with the manager about it there was no getting through to him about this charge and was told "that's what it is!" If I could give this hotel no stars I would. Definitely will not be staying at this location again or recommend to anyone. Pathetic this place

I cannot say enough about this hotel. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and special. Any problems that you have in the room are addressed immediately. The restaurant staff is awesome, the breakfast is delicious. The room are spacious and comfortable extremely clean, but the best thing is the way the entire staff makes you feel so important is just WOW.
