Cons:

Categories

Cleanliness
5.5
One guest reported the lobby was run-down and smelled bad; cleanliness concerns raised for public areas.
Service
9.2
Mixed service: one guest reported a serious front-desk issue (refund/false denial), but another specifically praised Sara as welcoming and professional — strong individual staff performance balances an isolated negative incident.
Location
9.8
Directly mentioned as a good location in reviews; location is a clear positive.
Room Quality
9
Room described as nice by a guest, though another mentioned noise from an adjoining door that affected sleep; overall room condition good but soundproofing is weak.
Amenities
6
Pool was closed and guests were not informed, causing dissatisfaction and a refund dispute.
Value for Money
5.5
Value negatively impacted by a guest losing money due to a disputed stay/refund and the perception of a run-down lobby; lowers perceived value.
Food and Beverage
7.8
Not mentioned in reviews; standard quality for this hotel tier.
Overall Experience
9.6
Mixed overall: multiple very positive stays ('Would stay again', 'wonderful'), but serious negatives for some (front-desk incident, closed pool); on balance several strong positive experiences tempered by notable service/amenity failures.

Awful, would not recommend, sketchy front desk staff.
Pros:

Was not told that the pool was closed so we wanted a refund and was told a refund would be issued through booking.com and now booking.com says that the front desk person didn’t write anything down and won’t verify that we didn’t stay, front desk person blatantly lied to us and now we are out the money for a room we didn’t stay at. Would not recommend, hotel was also runned down in the lobby and smelled weird.

It was ok but won’t be staying again.
Pros:

It was a good location.

Cons:

I could hear the next room over for two nights straight due to having an adjoined door. It was hard for my kids to sleep.

Avoid
Pros:

First of all, Brooklyn was very friendly and professional at check-in. That’s the only
Good thing about our stay. The floors in the room were so dirty our shoes stuck to them. The television is a joke with so much pixelation on every channel viewing was impossible. Breakfast was awful with bacon so greasy you couldn’t eat it. We found what looked like a dead roach in the bathroom and the ice machine on our floor didn’t work. Won’t stay here again.

Needs stuff fixed.
Pros:

Silverfish on the floor. The doors on the rooms slam extremely loud. The stairs door on the 3rd floor on the north end has a non functioning piston that’s supposed to slow the door down. It doesn’t work and the door slams and rattles the adjoining rooms.pool and hot tub not working. Was so looking forward to the hot tub for a good soak on a bad back after traveling so far to get there. . The two good things were the breakfast and the easy access to the main road thru town. Great breakfast places across the road. The Firehouse cafe was excellent.
