My stay was overall great! I have an ADA and I was able to have that handled without hassle. The down side is, I was told numerous times that there as a live DJ on Fridays and Saturday nights, there was not! I specifically stayed there for that reason! But over all it was fantastic and accommodating!

Not mad, but won’t be returning.

Check in and rooms were nice. Restaurant and coffee spot were both eh. Food was cold twice. Bartender was doubling as host and server, so he forgot about our drinks. Overall okay, just expected much better from a nice hotel.
