The hotel staff was courteous and helpful. One thing I truly appreciated was the efforts the hotel made to allow traditionally observant Jewish clients to have the opportunity to observe Shabbat and to keep kosher.

Nice clean hotel. Rooms were dated but simple and clean. The gym was extra smelly and the AC probably needs better filters or cleaning

Our bedroom window leaked a large amount of water appeared on the window sill both mornings. I notified front desk and woman who answered was unhelpful, acted like I made it up. This obviously is an ongoing issue. My handbag and phone phone were soaked as they were left on the window sill the first night. Asked for a manager to call me and never received a call.
