4/10 Fair

Staff was okay. Had to argue to have undisclosed paid parking waived. Hotel was under construction and smelled like paint and drywall. Amenities were all closed, also not disclosed online ahead of time. Gym, while open, was at 89 degrees throughout the weekend despite being reported to staff for resolution. Room itself was nice. Location was good.

Undergoing renovations. I had to check out after one night. The noise was unbearable. The staff are great and I have stayed here several times before. I will absolutely return after the renovations are complete.

6/10 Good

Stayed for 2 nights. We were unaware of construction going on starting each morning at 9 AM, which was a minor inconvenience. Quiet hours are supposed to be from 10 PM to 7 AM. Both nights but especially the 2nd night there was a large contingent of kids running around in the lobby playing with kazoos and kicking balls around all while screaming. I finally called the front desk and they said the manager on duty was working on it- it continued to get even louder the next 20-25 minutes. This is a nice property and I am sure will be really nice once renovations are done- our room was good size but like others have mentioned it was a little musty and even found a fruit loop behind a curtain. As someone who enjoys working out, the fitness center was ok but wish it could have had more weight equipment especially for a hotel this size. Would probably not stay here again until renovations are done.

Comfortable Bed, but a very busy weekend spot, no

Solid stay. The staff are nice. This is a tremendously busy place on the weekends, with kids running in the halls until they let get reigned in at midnight. Comfortable beds. We were told on Friday that the pool doesn’t open until 3–which is kind of why I book this hotel routinely. I like to swim in the morning.
