8/10 Good

Liked: Staff & service
Parking was very small and very tight. The lady at the front desk was very friendly, courteous and helpful. When we asked her for dinner recommendations her suggestion did not disappoint. The lobby was very blah and not very welcoming. Our room was extremely spacious and probably the biggest bathroom I’ve ever had at a hotel. However, the shower and tub were in need of some help. The caulking where the shower walls meet the tub had black spots in it. I could not tell if it was dirt or mold. And on the outside base of the tub something had been removed because you could see lots of old adhesive. The baseboards throughout the bathroom were also not in good shape. The main sleeping area was clean and decent enough for a 1 night stay but as a whole wasn’t up to my expectations for the price.
