I’ve stayed at this hotel multiple times, and it only gets better. The staff are consistently friendly, professional, and truly go out of their way to make guests feel welcome. The rooms are spotless — you can tell housekeeping takes pride in their work. And the breakfast? Outstanding. Fresh ingredients, plenty of options! On my last stay, they noticed I had an early flight and packed me a to-go breakfast without me even asking. That’s what I call above and beyond!

I had a wonderful experience during my recent stay. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the beds were cozy. The location is great — convenient and easy to get around. The check-in and check-out process was smooth, and I really appreciated being allowed a late checkout. The staff provided excellent service throughout my stay, and the room service was prompt and friendly. Breakfast was good with a nice selection. Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay — I would definitely recommend this hotel!

I stayed here for four nights, and it was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. My first room had to be changed because of bugs — not just in the bed or bathroom, but literally inside the coffee maker. Completely unacceptable.
By the third night, my vehicle was broken into and my wallet was stolen. The hotel staff refused to check the security cameras, even after the police asked. They said they would “look into it in a few days.” That’s not how you handle theft or guest safety.
I had flown in for this trip and was suddenly stranded without my ID, credit cards, or any help from the hotel. No offer of assistance, no urgency, and no concern for a paying guest left in an awful situation.
If you value cleanliness, security, or even basic customer service, stay anywhere else. This place is unsafe, unsanitary, and completely unhelpful when things go wrong.
