Rip off.
Cons:

No bar soap to wash hands, kleenex box empty, pathetically low water pressure, no bedding for pull out sofa. When I made the reservation the price was $151 for Friday night. I had to call the hotel and add Thursday night. Imagine my utter shock after we checked out on Saturday and I looked at the receipt and it was $647.00. I am sharing our experience and encouraging others to avoid your hotel chain.

Attractive rooms, comfortable beds , fine staff.
Pros:

The breakfast was very nice! Fresh fruit. VERY good waitress. Pretty interior decor. I’m a dinosaur when it comes to electronics. The TV was easy to operate! Thank you. The front desk people were cheerful and helpful.

Cons:

The quality of the coffee is not good. That is the ONLY criticism I have.

it wasn’t OK two nights day except for the difficulties we encountered above.
Pros:

Nice new hotel with nice lobby/ breakfast area.

Cons:

We were expecting housekeeping but came back at 10 o’clock p.m.,after being gone the entire day, to an unmade bed and no towels or toilet paper provided for the next day. And also our key cards would not work to get in our room when we got back either, had to have those reprogrammed before we could get into our room again.

Great value.
Pros:

We were 2 senior women staying for just 1 night. The staff were professional and friendly. Our standard room with 2 queen beds was spacious, spotless, roomy and really comfortable to sleep in. The whole hotel was beautiful. Breakfast options were tasty & a nice variety. There is a very reasonably priced restaurant right next door that had great food. I highly recommend staying here.
