The Rooms were a lot smaller than what the photos online depicted. Water wasn't hot, everyone had barely warm showers. Great area though and very comfortable beds.

The property was not unique, cracked vanity, cracked bathroom window, but it was clean and convenient.My biggest issue was inability to get wifi, which impacted my stay to the extent that I will not consider future stays at Argyle on the Park.

Comment from Hotel Management

Dear Neil, Thank you for your review. Things are getting broken from time to time and sometimes it is getting longer to fix them. The window cracked was already scheduled to be replaced. As for WIFI you should have asked us and we would help you. Sometimes it is just the matter of rebooting the router. It is really easy to ask, instead of being not happy and upset. We work hard here to make your stay comfortable but we cannot help you if you don't tell us that there is a problem.
