Nice place
Check in was great, room was clean but maintenance was way behind. Drawer fronts were coming apart, toilet water ran constantly, and the water pipes hammered as you took a shower.

Wasn't able to sleep well.
Wanted a little weekend get away. Reserved 2 nights. Check in was great, the staff was very friendly and was allowed to check in early which was really nice. In order to open the door to our room we had to put all of our weight into it, same with closing it. This was very annoying. The bath tub was not the cleanest there was hair in the corner. The water pressure was great and hot hot water. Which I love! The recliner was super comfy. The bed on the other hand was rock hard, did not sleep well and definitely felt it the next morning. Did not sleep well as it sounded like they were doing construction on the room above us all night. We made the decision that we could not do another night in this place. Again the staff was super nice and very accommodating where they not only return our money for the night we did not stay but also reinbursed us for the night we stayed. Overall not a comfortable place to sleep. But again the staff was very nice.
