8.6/10 Excellent! (915 reviews)

The pictures of this hotel are significantly better than how the hotel actually looks. It’s a nice hotel overall but some areas are dated and need fresh paint. When I stayed here I was told the bar/restaurant was being renovated so it would be only open for the continental breakfast. The “breakfast” consisted of stale danishes, muffins, juice, granola and yogurt. No serving utensils and an extremely limited amount. Once the single platefuls were gone, they stated that was all they had, regardless of how many guests they had. Parking was in a deck next door and was an inconvenience because you have to call or text the company to be let out of the gate each time you had to exit. Overall it’s a decent hotel and I would stay here again only for 1 or 2 days.
