Great Location but Mediocre Hotel
Pros:

The hotel is nicely located. The breakfast was very good and the bed was comfortable. The room was very cold. We were promised an extra heater but it never arrived. Asked for a light bulb to be changed - never happened. Very much overpriced!

Pros:

The carpet was pulled up in the hallway- nothing was even mentioned to us upon checking in. Got to the room and it was not like it looked in the Expedia photos. Bathtub was dirty. Went to complain and there were no other rooms available and they couldn’t do anything to help us until the morning so we were stuck there. The room was stuffy, they did give is a fan. Please see photos.

Pros:

Fitness center was closed. That was the reason I booked here. Jetted tub did not work. That was the second reason I booked here. No compensation was given even when I asked if they could include a continental (not hot) breakfast.

Pros:

We had no heat the first night and almost the 2nd night. Manager told staff to tell us 1/2 the building was out. 2nd day maintenance guy came to our room to look at it and said it had been turned off and the staff should have known to look at it the night before or at least offer a portable heater. Manager hid behind his staff. He should have come to talk to us. Poor management!!

Pros:

Great little hotel in the middle of everything. Nightly music in the Danny Mann bar. Good food and service. Older hotel with many turns in the hallways and rooms are small compared to newer hotels.
