Guests described rooms as modern, comfortable and clean with very comfortable beds, though some noted the property is older and there were isolated issues (no hot water, ceiling leak).
Amenities
7.5
Breakfast offerings (yogurt/fresh fruit bar) were appreciated, but lack of a pool and limited on-site amenities along with parking logistics lowered this score.
Value for Money
6.5
Multiple complaints about additional fees—especially a $25/day parking charge—and perceived high prices for breakfast and during event peaks reduced perceived value.

Breakfast was praised for variety and yogurt/fresh fruit options; some negatives included occasional shortages, soggy items, and that breakfast is not free.
Overall Experience

It was perfect for what we needed.
Pros:

When we first pulled up to the property I thought it looked a little sketchy, but once I walked inside the hotel was very welcoming and more updated. Definitely an older property, but staff was very accommodating and friendly, even getting us checked in to our room early. The breakfast was very good, I loved the yogurt fruit bar, the French toast was a little soggy, but overall very good.

Cons:

For those with kids, may be a little disappointed with no pool.
