The first 3 nights of my trip were sleepless. There were multiple dogs barking throughout the night. I'd suggest having 2 floors for those guests that have animals and 2 floors thay are just for those guests traveling without pets.

A great experience. Gina was wonderful! Our room had a leak in the ceiling, and they upgraded us at no cost. the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Parking is a bit tight, but it works. The small fitness facility looked nice and the pool as well. Onsite laundry was a big help. Short drive to shopping and restaurants. I could do without the kids and teens, but it is across from the college but I'm not a kid person. all in all, great experience and highly recommended.

The only complaint we have is the set up for the light switches. Why not just use normal light switches… Would make it much simpler and easier.
