Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The finishes and fixtures in my room were pretty worn out. Lots of chips and scuffs, the flooring was peeling, and the bathroom shower was an unpleasant experience. Fixture finishes were chipped, orange stains in the shower pan, messy caulking, and rust forming around the ceiling above. The fitness center was well equipped but not stocked with towels and the sanitizing wipe dispenser was not functioning. Staff were nice and the made to order breakfast was pretty good, but when my flight home got cancelled later that day, I did not hesitate to stay elsewhere.

nice hotel

The hotel is located downtown so it’s pretty convenient to things. The parking situation is not great. Check in went smoothly. I think it’s weird that the A/C in each room is controlled by the front desk, so you have to call them if you want it changed. But, everything was clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable.

Floors in room were falling apart, pillows on the floor, floorboards were loose and seeping water (maybe)? Shower wouldn’t turn off, toilet ran. Area did not seem safe. Was definitely not as nice as indigo hotels I’ve been to before. Staff was friendly, helpful, but facility was sub-par at best.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!! To be a rather higher scale side of town this should have been a much better property. Especially considering the price per night! I expected a lot more. Elevators don’t work half of the time, rooms are half way clean, broken furniture, water pressure is terrible! Wish I had not spent the money
