Overall was a excellent stay. Would stay there again.
Pros:

Overall stay was very good. No Wifi so that was a little discouraging. Food in breakfast bar was great, coffee was always a HOT and available. Staff was very friendly, and our beds were comfy.

Cons:

No Wifi. We had brief periods of heavy rain and the TV would go out, or lose connection. Ice machine on 4th floor didn't work, always had to go to 3rd floor for ice.

Pros:

Breakfast had a lot to choose from and the location was great.

Cons:

They were doing construction in the room next to us, all the way down. We were woken up by the sounds every morning. They did not have a smart tv nor wifi. It had been down since a storm a few weeks ago.

Great fantastic short vacation.!! Will be back.
Pros:

It is an older hotel but they are re-doing the rooms. I was skeptical from the reviews on line but decided to try it anyway. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was good. Glad we went. Going for a full week next year.

Cons:

Parking if I had to say something but there was an elevator for that so it wasn’t so bad.!!
