We had a great time staying here! The location was ideal, and it was comfortable and quiet. The only downside was the pool being a bit small and the hot tub out of service, but we would absolutely stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was really friendly and accommodating, taking care of any issues that rose (the elevator wasn't working properly and they were on the phone to get it taken care of immediately and stayed around to make sure it was - this did not affect us but it was nice to see). The pool was REALLY cold and the hot tub was closed for maintenance. The room, although nonsmoking, smelled of smoke. You also have to know "tricks" to open the doors - some you have to turn the handle up, some down and some both. We were comfortable and it was a great location - just some property conditions that could be better. we would stay again for another short visit but probably not longer than a couple nights like we did.

The price for the room is too high for what it is. We stayed in a room the night before for $67.00 and it was x10 better. I was shocked to see the room knowing I paid over $200.00 for one night. I am sure it being Sturgess time did not help.
