This was a very nice hotel. The breakfast was one of the best "hotel" breakfasts I have seen and the room was clean. There was a nice lobby area to sit in and there was also a small bar. I would be good for business groups.

The guy at the front desk was great. He was having to do multiple jobs at once but stayed polite and professional. The room was very nice and clean. The bed was comfortable but the pillows could use an upgrade.

Concerns of health and safety on this stay. Staff did nothing to detur the individuals on the floor above to keep down their noise and stomping until 3 in the morning and from just before 5 am. There was a school group using the door lock to prop doors open with as they cycled in and out. The doors slamming into this was beyond loud. Again, staff did nothing to address this on several calls.
