The staff was very friendly. Unfortunately, the building was extremely dirty. This is putting aside the usual scuffs and marks on walls, doors, and floorboards. It looked like the halls and elevators had not been vacuumed or swept in months. It was nasty.

Inability to maintain comfortable room temperature

My only issue with the hotel was the inability to control the room temperature. It was either exceedingly hot or cold as the thermostat appeared to do nothing. We were a large group, and this was a common complaint. Location, service and breakfast were never an issue. Employees were very nice and helpful.

No EV Charger as Promised

The booking page listed an EV charger, which is why we booked here, so that should get taken down. The hotel doesn't know why it is listed, so I suppose it's more on hotels.com. Also, there was no mention of a pet fee when we booked, but that was charged when we got there.
