Good location
This hotel was located near where I needed to be and that’s why we choose it. The room had a smell of wet dog but not bad. The bed was comfy and clean. All in all I enjoyed my stay. Loved the 12:00 check out.

We visited on a high demand weekend and paid what I’d say were nearly 5-star rates. I get it: supply & demand but I didn’t feel it was a good value. I had to ask for a new room key at least five times as the card reader wasn't working properly. Room was spacious and clean.

Good value for price paid. Bedding was above average. Housekeeping staff visited room each day. Clean towels each day. A rarity during and post Covid. Very good, decently stocked breakfast bar. Good mix of hot food and cold choices. Even had a pool which was clean.

Woman checking us in could not have been nicer. Very accommodating when we asked to get into our room early. Very welcoming and helpful with questions about the area. Great start to our stay. Breakfast was a simple, hotel breakfast but very good. Staff was also helpful in that area. Hotel was conveniently located to the bikeway which was the purpose of our trip.
