The hotel was nice and staff courteous. However, one reason for selection was the indoor pool as we were traveling with 3 grandchildren who love the water. Pool water was so cold, we could not stay in it long. When another two people came into the pool, I said jokingly "are you here for the polar plunge"? After jumping in they said "we know what you mean". The hotel apparently wants to market that they have a pool, but refuse to heat the pool in order to save money.

The hotel was fine. Close to a lot of dining options. Breakfast was not even close to good……poor selection and every single plate was wet. Sheets on the bed were torn and needed to be replaced. Probably won’t be back

Stay was overall good. Great location, easy parking, modern room. Breakfast selection was ok. Bathroom needed some renovation - chipped tub and wall repair. Also, could use better lighting in shower. Despite those minor items, would stay again.
