Cleanliness
7
Mixed: multiple guests noted rooms and public areas were clean, but there were reports of bugs in a room and pool area and renovation-related dust/paint/plastic smell affecting perception.
Service
9.4
Generally strong: many mentions of friendly, helpful staff and prompt service (extra towels, good check-in experiences). One negative interaction with a manager about bugs lowered this slightly.
Location
9.4
Consistently praised: several reviews explicitly state the location was great and convenient for travel/convention stops.
Room Quality
7.8
Comfortable beds and generally clean rooms reported, but some guests noted dated interiors, occasional plumbing/temperature quirks, and one bug incident.
Amenities
6.5
Notable issues: pool and fitness center were closed for renovations (sometimes without prior notification), reducing amenity value for guests.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed: breakfast and comfort were positives, but at least one guest felt charged a higher rate at checkout and another thought price was a bit high given needed updates.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Positive remarks: breakfast described as very good/standard and several guests called it a strong point of the stay.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall favorable: many guests described relaxing or great stays and praised staff and cleanliness despite renovations; a few issues (renovation inconvenience, bugs, occasional noise) tempered the experience.

Uncomfortable
Pros:

Acceptable

Cons:

Bugs in my room when I got there. Bugs in pool area and pool was closed earlier than posted on Thursday night. Manager said I had Bugs in my house when I complained about Bugs issues. I don't have Bugs in my house. He acted like no big deal. Was not comfortable the whole time there after that

Minor annoyances but worked
Pros:

Standard breakfast, comfortable bed, clean room, nice people.

Cons:

Undergoing a renovation, didn’t disclose upon making reservation. Everything was open, no noise. But on to our room we had to maneuver through partially laid carpet, carpet glue, and workers. Shower wasn’t very hot; need to adjust handle to go past halfway hot/cold. Bathroom nightlight shines directly onto bed unless door is closed. Our door lock did not open the latch unless pulled upward instead of standard down.

Overnight Stop on our way to our Convention.
Pros:

Hotel was older and needed some updating but the staff is awesome. Breakfast was very good and the room was good. The bed was very good. I thought the price was a little high but we were thankful for a good quiet night of sleep.

Cons:

Hotel needs an update and some renovations but they had everything needed and the room was very comfortable.

Great stay
Pros:

Very nice people and place. Asked for extra towels and a blanket, they were brought to the room right away. The whole facility was very clean despite being renovated.

Cons:

Not sure if it was the bar next to the hotel or another room, but was some loud music playing very late.
