Not relaxing at all. The hotel tries to be a modern but made the mistake of putting hard floors in the rooms. For two nights I couldn't get any rest because it sounded like the room above me was constantly stomping around.
The breakfast was mediocre, bland and during my trip the pancake maker was out of order.
They also apparently have recurring problems with their computers. At check-in I had to wait over 20 minutes because the system couldn't make keys and they didn't have any of their emergency pre-mades for my room. They had to call for help and even ended up resetting the whole thing (again).
One positive was that they had USB connections in all the outlets for charging.
Staff was nice enough but I would not stay here again.

We've stayed here numerous times and have had a good experience overall. We did notice the overall cleanliness of the halls and room to be less than usual. We've enjoyed the breakfast and friendly staff.
