Reviews and Ratings
Upon arrival, the lobby had a somewhat 'funny' odor, and there were unpleasant carpet spots near the bedside. The hotel staff easily coordinated splitting charges between our rooms. The service was friendly and attentive, though the hot tub situation could have been handled better. The location, while undergoing renovations, is convenient for airport access and dining options. The dining service, while the snacks were limited, was satisfactory. Overall, a reasonable value for the experience.
The hotel is conveniently located near the airport, making it ideal for short stays or quick stopovers. The staff is friendly and responsive to guest needs. However, the ongoing renovations may disrupt the overall experience.
Upon arrival, I noticed a somewhat funny odor in the rooms and some unpleasant spots on the carpet near the bedside. Unfortunately, the cleanliness was questionable with evidence of stains on the sheets, chairs, and floors, which was quite disappointing. The absence of a microwave or fridge in my room was not what I expected for the price paid. However, the location was convenient near the airport, restaurants, and fast food spots, making it ideal for a quick getaway. The dining experience was satisfactory, easy to find off the highway, but nothing extraordinary.

However, interactions with the staff were lackluster, and there were issues with the shower plumbing. The dining experience was enjoyable, although limited options were available. Overall, the facilities met my expectations.
When I first entered the room, there was a somewhat funny odor, and the carpet had some unpleasant spots near the bedside area. However, after informing them about the responsible party for each room, charges were appropriately processed. The hotel offers great service, especially from the porters who were charismatic and always on top of our needs. The location, despite undergoing renovations, is excellent, close to the airport, restaurants, and fast food options.
