Good Hotel in a good location
The Hotel is in a great location. Staff are very friendly. Breakfast was great. My only complaint was the room we were given. The room was too old for the amount we paid. Other than that, all was good. We shall definitely be back.

Disappointing.
Booked 6 rooms. None were ready when we showed up at 4:30pm. Some waited over an hour and were just to sit down and wait when any inquiries were made. Then given a room overlooking trash dumpsters. AC did not work in a couple of rooms. Expected better and won't be staying again.
