Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. Although the rooms were clean and comfortable, there was a lingering smell of mildew. The staff was courteous, but I felt like more investment could enhance the overall service quality. The location was convenient for my work assignment, but I was disappointed by the lack of accessibility to amenities like the attached restaurant and the closure of the on-site dining during my stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The rooms had top-of-the-line equipment, providing a perfect start or end to the day with excellent beds and pillows, but they felt a bit small and stuffy. The cleanliness was satisfactory, although it seemed over-painted in some areas. The service was friendly and accommodating, ensuring our needs were met. The hotel's location was central, which was convenient, but the presence of smoke odor and noise from slamming doors affected the overall ambiance. Dining was average to above average with some homemade dishes, and the facilities were adequate. Overall, considering the value for money, there were positives and negatives to note.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were perfectly clean and equipped with a fridge and microwave, though I stayed in one of the unrenovated rooms which had a wall phone next to where my head would be. The location was convenient to nearby adventures and downtown attractions, including a relaxing fireplace area. The dining was satisfying, offering a variety of fresh options, and the facilities were well-kept overall.
The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms are narrow but have a King Size bed, and the old outlets may need you to be creative with charging devices. The service is mostly good, except for some front desk issues. The location is interesting but could use some improvements. The dining experience is more than satisfactory, offering a variety of choices.
