Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a unique charm, but some areas need improvement. The decor in the rooms is dated and could use a refresh, and the rollaway bed was not the most comfortable. However, the WiFi availability is a plus, even though cleanliness by housekeeping needs attention.
The hotel had some disappointments, like unclean rooms with outdated decor and an uncomfortable rollaway bed, but the cleanliness was maintained. The service was excellent, offering various amenities from front desk assistance to housekeeping. The location was convenient, although limited dining options posed a challenge. The dining experience offered some tasty options, and the facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, though not cleaned by housekeeping, were surprisingly kept clean. However, the super uncomfortable rollaway bed and dirty old decor were definite drawbacks. The service, from the front desk to housekeepers, was notable for its efficiency and friendliness. The location, while in a business park away from everything, offered a quiet setting. The dining experience, although with some nice options like sugar-free syrup, had limitations on variety. Overall, the hotel had its ups and downs, making it a somewhat average stay.
