I went for a girls weekend and the hotel was nice and clean. Staff was very pleasant and nice. The only downfall was, it was wayyyyyyyy to much clorine in the hot tub. We couldn't stay in it no longer than 5 mins due to our eyes burning and us coughing. Other than that, everything was great.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We are so glad you and your friends had a great stay with us, but we do apologize if the hot tub chemicals were too strong. We'll address this with the team to make sure everything was at appropriate levels. Thanks again!

Staff were great. First room had a AC Unit water leak, damp carpet and very bad musty smell and odors. Given second room, which was nicer. Very loud people in room above. Fighting, stomping around.

Avid traveler. This location was fine right off Route 1. The issue was the staff and unwillingness to get things done. For example my family and I stayed in em 210 there was no hot water. I specifically asked for room to be cleaned after 1st night and staff did not clean room. Each morning breakfast pans were empty by 8am and remained that way. I spoke to guy at front desk. The lady working kitchen was useless. She walked around on her cell phone. I would not stay at this location again

We apologize for the miscommunications and we have addressed your concerns with our staff. Just so you know, we do have a record of a "do not disturb" sign on your door until 5 pm, which is why the window for housekeeping service was missed until the next morning. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future and wish you safe and happy travels.
