use caution

This is an older hotel and not what i expected. The beds were comfy, the rooms show signs of need to upgrade. The pool was down and not usable. I dont think I would have anyway as the pool room seemed very outdated and in need a huge update. The elevators, there were two. One was down. The other one had tape keeping the carpet down. The breakfast was the best part of it. Dont go to the attached TGIF it was friendly service but food gross

The breakfast options were great. The social hour was also a plus. Having TGIF entrance attched to the hotel, meant no driving and no coats. Extremely convenient. Staff at the front desk were very nice and helpful.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ experience at a 4star price! The room was very clean and well stocked with towels, coffee, cups. The bathroom had a bathtub and an exhaust fan. The room also had a decent size refrigerator to keep beverages nice and cold. Upon arrival we learned that they offer an incredible, eggs to order, breakfast every morning and an afternoon happy hour at no extra cost. The TGIF restaurant is attached to the Embassy Suites offered a hot delicious menu and excellent service. The only down side to our experience was that the Hot Tub was not operational, although the pool was heated. We absolutely loved our stay at the Embassy Suites and are looking forward to our next visit soon.
