Comfortable bed with great linens. We had a kitchenette and enjoyed the ability to make breakfast. No toaster and the back and front door needed maintenance. Nice pool, hot tub and sauna!

This hotel is updating carpet, paint,beds, mattresses and pillows. They are going contactless but do have a caretaker on premise. My room number and code for it didn't come through so the caretaker was very helpful and pleasant to make sure that the code he gave us worked. I would suggest they look for a women's opinion on decor as it didn't flow well. Furniture was mis-matched although everything looked new. For $175.00, the price of the hotel room I would expect better quality towels and at least some donuts or cereal with coffee that is better than what is in the rooms. Bathroom door did not close all the way.

Manager very accommodating and courteous. Housekeeping needs to vacuum under the beds and clean tub/shower. Previous guest items left hanging in shower. (Luffa). Just a suggestion to add hook on bathroom door to hang clothing. Have kleenex in bathroom . Still very pleased with my stay.

We had a room with a kitchen, it was clean and very nice. It met our needs perfectly for the time we were there. The staff was helpful. You could see that they had recently done a remodel. It looked very nice and fresh. They did not have breakfast ability yet, but we new that going in as it was stated online. We did not use the pool or hot tub, but saw other people in there. If you had stayed there in the past you really need to give it another chance under the new management.
If you have long hair or use conditioner you should bring your own as theirs is like water. Also bring your own hangers if you need to hang anything as there were none in our room nor a place to hang other than the bathroom.

Room was nice, but staff was nonexistent. Lots of loud guest during the overnight hours on the second floor. No easy was to contact staff or even a number to contact staff at. No one at the "lobby" due to construction

I am sorry that I did not get his name but, the guy who helped check in was very helpful and nice. He tried hard to get room 210 to unlock. We ended up going through our room to the additional room. He tried really hard! He also answered any questions we had.
