Post-COVID hotel stays have been interesting. I don't know about you but, prior to the pandemic, the cost of staying in a hotel included daily cleaning. Now, it doesn't; however, the cost to stay in a hotel has not decreased. The "check-in talk" should include the rules regarding daily cleaning of your room. But fair warning, even if you request it, it might still not happen - as was the case at this hotel. It is SO disappointing, after a long day out and after requesting your room to be cleaned and made up, returning to a room that is still as you left it. I don't understand. And then the excuses fly when front desk staff are called on it. Aside from that, it is a nice enough hotel and property, parking stalls are tight.

This was a great location for us, the bed was comfortable and clean. I will likely stay here again, BUT, I will never take a room on the first floor down the hall from the restaurant/bar. Way too noisy!!

We stayed in on Christmas night and got greeted with some candycanes and a lovely Christmas card. The room was really clean, spacious and brand new, modern decor. They even had a complimentary razor for a beard emergency, which was much appreciated. Happy New Year!

The traffic noise at this site is horrible. If you get a room, book an even numbered room as it will be on the other side of the building away from the noise. Why would someone build a hotel and not have noise suppression built into the structure? Obviously the person above couldn't sleep either as they were pacing back and forth at 2....3..and 4 in the morning. Also didn't help that I have a fire detector above my bed flashing a light all night long
