Appreciated pet friendly and room service. Clean and quiet. My only negative is the locks on doors. They were very delayed with recognizing the key cards. When you are outside at midnight potting a dog I want that door to open quickly and not be fussing with it trying to get it to recognize it.

Everything was good till I had to leave for a family emergency and got bounced between the hotel and hotels.com to see if I could refund one night since my plan was to stay the whole trip but obviously couldn’t due to family emergency. The lady we got at the hotel to talk to the manager was very rude and unpleasant. The rest of staff was great.

Facility was well-maintained and clean. Both the room & bathroom were spacious. Hospitality, though, was lacking when members of my group tried to gather in the lobby and enjoy a meal together. We were told we could not gather as a group in the lobby unless we rented a “party room.” We were told we could eat in our rooms in groups of 4 only.

The beds were very comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. The room was spotless. Even the carpet was clean. The hotel is in great condition except for one glaring oversight. The elevators! The elevators are not regularly cleaned (built up dirt and grime). Its a shame because they don't represent the care being given to the rest of the facility. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my stay and will return.
