Customer training is needed ASAP!!!!!
Pros:

The hotel was nice and clean. I just wish is it was located a little closer to restaurants and shopping.

Cons:

The staff needs some customer service training. They were not welcoming or friendly. They gave the impression it’s a job and I’m only her to do my job. When you asked a question the response was dry and unappealing. It as about 10pm when I was standing at the desk to ask a question. A guest with his wife in a wheelchair was inquiring about places to eat. The front desk person pointed out the door and told her can walk 10 mins down the street. There was no compassion with her response to the gentleman at all. Didn’t give him the name of the restaurant or anything other options given the time or the guest current situation. This was horrible.

Pros:

The hotel in general was good. Free Parking, Free basic Breakfast and comfortable rooms.

Cons:

The only issue was that the hotel charged $100 USD for the deposit, and 30 days later they had not refunded the charge to my credit card.
Booking support doesn't answer either my request.

Won’t come back for weekends. Mid week fair price.
Pros:

Facilities were fine

Cons:

High price for a night but the most disturbing thing was that the housekeeping was pressing to clean 3 hours before checkout.
