The room definitely needs updated and the mattress desperately needs replaced!! The maid service was just okay! Needs to clean the cobwebs around the ceiling! Definitely not a hotel for tall people because the ceilings are low. The people at the front desk were kind and the lobby was nice. I room had a funny smell like someone smoked a cigar in it! Will not be staying here again!

Nice enough hotel with a good gym, pool and hot tub. Sauna was not working. Restaurant was good. Room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom needs upgrade. Would stay again if price was right, but would not pay a premium to stay there.
