Cleanliness
5
Multiple guests reported dirty carpets, stained towels, moldy odors in bathroom/spa, bugs and unvacuumed floors — cleanliness is a clear weakness.
Service
10
Several reviews praise very pleasant, professional and accommodating staff at check-in; a few negative desk interactions were noted but overall staff friendliness and helpfulness were recurring positives.
Location
10
Location repeatedly praised — close to events/college, restaurants and attractions; kids enjoyed plane-spotting; overall a strong positive in many reviews.
Room Quality
6
Rooms are generally comfortable but multiple comments about old/stained tubs, poor shower flow, thin walls/conjoined doors and some dated repairs lower this score.
Amenities
8
Amenities like a clean spa room and available coffee were noted positively, though issues reported include pool/mold smells, limited early-morning offerings, parking constraints and A/C control problems.
Value for Money
9.5
Several guests called the price affordable and the hotel good value; despite some saying it didn’t meet expectations for the price, value comments were frequently positive.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Breakfast received multiple complaints (stale bagels, poorly prepared eggs, limited staff presence), but some found the breakfast/coffee acceptable on occasion; overall mixed but salvageable.
Overall Experience
8
Mixed reviews overall: location, value and many service interactions were positive, but cleanliness, breakfast and some room issues tempered experiences; net sentiment aligns with the target overall rating.
