This property was under a major renovation, which was noted when I booked, thus the 4 star. We were on 2nd floor which most of which was complete. Our room was very nice, all new everything. Bed was comfortable, very clean, no noise from construction. The breakfast was continental as construction did allow for full hot breakfast. No problem for us.

The man who works the front desk was so nice and helpful! We loved the pool. We used their breakfast room for a birthday party and it was perfect! This was the second time we’ve had a birthday party there and it won’t be the last. Loved it!

Great location, speedy check in. One elevator which can be a hassle if it’s booked - having to wait. The rooms are clean, the tv is old, the showers need updating, the shower floor made noise every time you moved around. Overall a good stay.m
