Was hit with a $15 per day parking charge that was not advertised on the booking! The clerk said it was just started. No hot coffee or other amenities most hotels offer Fitness center is mediocre. Will not stay here again. Poor customer service and failure to disclose added fees like parking!

My room was wonderful. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, the ac/heat worked great. It was spacious and had a big tv. The shower was modern. I like the configuration of the room. They also provided a steamer for your clothes and it worked well. I did not get to try the restaurant but it seemed inviting.

The property referred us to and paid for an alternative hotel which ended up working great for us. The staff was stressed and it appeared the hotel overbooked.

Parking fee
We have been staying at this hotel for years. However this time there was a 15 dollar per day per vehicle fee. This hotel is already on the expensive side with no free breakfast now a parking fee. We will not be staying here again. We will find a hotel with amenities and no parking fee.

Verified traveller

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Would not recommend
Very noisy, walls are paper thin so you can hear everything from the people next to, above, and below you (if you’re lucky enough to be in a second floor room), as well as anyone walking/talking in the halls. Doors to the hallway slam loudly on their own whenever opened. Plus the train goes by at all hours of the night blaring its horn loudly, so impossible to get any sleep. Housekeeping didn’t clean the room, despite being out of it all day. Room seemed clean enough, but the hallways/stairways/elevators were definitely not clean.
