Nice hotel, not a great shower.
Stay was nice room was very clean. Water pressure in the shower was terrible and the drain backed up. We spoke to the front desk about the drain on our first morning. It looked like someone tried to rectify the issue as the drain was caulked, but it was still slow the next morning.

Due to a mixup in the reservation, (my fault) we stayed in the last room available, which was a King Suite. I felt for the price ($240) that it was nothing special and there wasn't even a free breakfast offered. Half of the Lobby was closed, due to renovations and the Hot Tub was not in service.

This room cost too much for it’s age!
Not impressed with this property for the price we paid on a Saturday. The hot tub was not working. The lobby was undergoing renovation and a mess. Our room was very basic and dated. There was a charge for breakfast. Our view was the worst view I’ve ever had in a hotel. It is below. There was a weird locked closet in the room. Just not impressed.
Our beautiful window view.

The lobby was being remodeled and the restaurant was closed. The room was nice. It was a little pricey, considering the restaurant being closed, and the lobby remodel.

I am impressed with the personal care I received. I had a mix up with the reservations. They contacted me to straighten it out. The person at the front desk was very friendly when we checked in. This is my second time staying there, and I will do it again.
