We always like staying here. The beds a comfortable and the staff is very friendly. It’s easy walking to anywhere downtown. We liked the pool and hot tub but wish the hotel would let us use it earlier than 9:00 am and the towels are very thin but otherwise we really like staying there.

We loved our stay here. We were worried about the noise from the pool area, but we could not hear anything outside of the room. Our experience was great and would stay here again.

The hotel staff were available, helpful, and friendly throughout the stay. The location is perfect. Even though it’s an older hotel, they keep it maintained nicely. Lighting in rooms could be better. I would definitely stay there again.

The stay was great...until it wasn't.

The hotel itself was very nice. The room was comfortable, the pool was fun, and the continental breakfast was the best I've had in any hotel. (Chocolate waffles!?) Sadly, the visit ended on a sour note. While we were trying to get ready to check out, the sink in our room started backing up with smelly brown sludge. We called the front desk who said they would send someone up immediately. No one came. Since that was the only sink in the room, it made getting ready there impossible. I had to finish getting ready in the car. When we had finished loading our bags and went to turn in our keys, we showed the lady at the desk the pictures of the sludge and reminded we had called down about this issue nearly an hour ago and no one ever came. When we left the room the sink was nearly full. The only response we got was, "oh, that isn't good. Sorry about that." Really? I've attached a photo of the sludge the first minute it started backing up. I didn't take pictures of the full sink, but it got even more dense and gross.
