Our only issue was slow computer performance at the front desk during check-in so the process took longer than usual. Other than that, we love the place and stay about 8 to 10 times a year.

Was in town for an event over a weekend. Hotel was easy to get to. Updated. Clean. Negatives would be that the rooms are advertised as a king bed. The bed is clearly a queen. When asked front desk about size of bed. They told me that that is their king bed. I also think that when built, the contractors skimped on insulation. Could hear the bass from music and if anybody would laugh through the walls. Had to sleep with air and tv on to hide neighbor room noise.
