Danielle family with young children November 11, 2024
Positives: Location was very convenient
Negatives: I understand they are renovating but they waited way too long to complete renovations. Walls had bubbled out soft spots, water damage, and there was definitely mold. Headaches and stuffy noses the whole time.

O young couple September 4, 2024
Positives: Bed was ok
Negatives: The bed was the only good thing. The shower/tub turned off if you turned it all the way left (hot). Was under construction. They attempted to cancel the reservation two weeks before the event.

While the location is convenient...
Jocelyn family with young children August 6, 2024
Positives: Location, staff were great.
Negatives: The hotel is undergoing much-needed renovations, which they told us about. The renovations were being undertaken on the 5th and 6th floors during our stay. We were put on the 4th floor. I'd have preferred being placed on the 3rd or 2nd floor and having more noise isolation from the works. Workers were redoing the bathroom directly over ours and i was incredibly loud.
