The only thing I was disappointed with was having to pay $30.00 per night for parking and $20.00 more per night for a resort fee. That added $50.00 per night to the room. I'd rather be told the real price up front. Other than that, the employees were great and the room was fine.

Overall a good hotel to rest the night. Spacious room and bathroom. Slight issue with bathroom flush but maintenance was able to resolve immediately even at night. Breakfast (room service) was expensive with incredulous tax. I recommend delivery from elsewhere.

Restaurant and bar not open late enough. Good wine choices. Coffee shop that is only open until 11:00 closes at 0930 (without a sign on the window and people lined up waiting) so the person working can take a 30 minute break. No one to relieve her. Waited so long to get seated for breakfast that we left and went elsewhere.

This was the worst experience I have had staying at a hotel. We stayed there for 25 days. Very unhelpful staff. Our bath drain got blocked. The staff were unable to fix it in a timely manner, so we had to move to another room. Was told it happens all the time. We asked for compensation for the inconvenience and got none. Was told that they had dealt with the problem. We will not use Expedia for booking hotels, once you pay, you are on your own.

Cleaning staff nice, but 2 stays in a row, room not cleaned well. 1x a bra left behind on the floor, 1x garbage can not emptied. Makes me question where else the cleaning is lacking. Front desk staff usually just medium-friendly. Hotel rooms are run down and showing a great deal of wear and tear. Definitely need to renovate/ update. Rooms have historically been very dimly lit, dark, and dank. Have stayed there a handful of times in the last couple of years. This last stay will probably be our last time there.
