Fine but lots of broken amenities

The room, beds, breakfast and shower were good. We were very disappointed, however, that the pool was closed, and when we went to use the exercise room, none of the equipment worked and the air conditioning was broken. The ice machine on the first floor was also broken.

Excellent stay

The front desk employee was exceptionally kind and professional. He greeted us warmly and seemed genuine in serving us. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Complimentary bottled water and 24/7 coffee and tea was a nice perk. The hotel was also in a convenient location - just down the road from several restaurants and shopping areas. This place exceeded our expectations, especially for the price.
