We stayed in a suite. There was a HVAC units attached to the wall in each of the units. Both were not weather sealed. There was a draft coming in from both the units. The hotel doesn’t clean the room unless explicitly requested. We were not told about it. Apparently, it’s mentioned somewhere key card folio. Parking and breakfast are complementary and room rates are quite reasonable.

The hotel and staff were very kind and accommodating. There were some areas in the room that were not "finished." There was an open hole in the ceiling in the bathroom surrounding the sprinkler. There was a dehumidifier in the corner of my room as well...that was not plugged in or turned on.

Not a very compeling hotel
Possibly one of the worst pull-out couches I ever slept on! The mattress was so old and thin and lumpy that I felt every single metal piece in the couch. Also, while the first impression of the suite was that it was quite clean, a few things came to my attention like a dead dry bug on the window sill (probably noone ever opene the first blind to see it), also the window paint seems to be recent, it was clearly put on top of a rusty frame (because it was visible). And on the sides of the couch, where people usually do not look but where I put the chair, there were mulpitle crubms. The fan in the half bath did not work and the light was very dim. We come to that area quite often for swim meets, but this hotel will not be on my list - the price does not match the offering.

Evening check in was great, staff was friendly, helpful, and informative. Saturday female day never greeted us anytime we came into the lobby. I requested housekeeping during check in and called Saturday however it wasn’t done by 2P, I called front desk which was useless. When housekeeping arrived I just asked them to for new towels, clean the bathroom, and change the trash and she did. Check out went well.
