Great property. Very safe and clean. One star removed because for 2 days there was no cream for the coffee. Once the very nice lady was working, she took care of it, but 2 days having to go elsewhere for coffee is ridiculous

THE STAFF - Annette and T (I think - morning staff) was phenomenal! Made our mornings so special. Helped us when we needed an early breakfast before heading out. Went way beyond the call of duty. Didn't like the fact that there was no closet. There was 6 coat hangers and several wall knobs for clothes to hang which was ok but would prefer a little different.

Nice Service but Comfort & Cleanliness Needs Work

We had a mixed experience at this hotel. The Front Desk staff was very kind and welcoming, and the lobby was clean and inviting. Unfortunately, our room did not meet expectations. There was hair from previous guests throughout the space, the shower stall wasn’t clean, and it was out of body wash. The beds were also extremely firm and uncomfortable. The pool was disappointingly cold, which made it difficult to enjoy. The strangest issue, however, was the elevator alarm. The high-pitched beeping is jarring, especially for children, and could be very triggering for those with PTSD or guests who are neurodivergent and sensitive to sound. While I appreciate accessibility for the hearing impaired, I would strongly suggest adding a visual indicator instead of such a sharp sound.

Due to weather and conditions out of my control, my flight was canceled from NJ. I attempted to notify the hotel of my situation and it took two days for them to respond and they would not refund me even though I never checked in. I understand they have a "cancelation policy" but they should also have a policy in place for instances such as this. I travel for business often and will not be staying at this property nor will I stay at any other TRU properties if this is how they handle these situations.

My stay was amazing. Everyone was so happy and cheery. Affordable. Clean and well kept up. They ran out of soap for the soap dispenser next to the sink so we had to use bar soap or body wash. Shout out to Kira and Annette! Kira at the fornt desk was so friendly and helpful, and breakfast helper Annette kept everything stocked. Annete was also very cheery, happy, and positive.
