A nice, convenient place to stay which was close to everything we wanted to do. But only 1 of the 3 elevators was working so we had long wait times for the one elevator.

Jonathan at the front desk was wonderful, every employee we came across was friendly and helpful. Only annoyance was the fact only one out of the three elevators was working..but this did not make or break the stay! The proximity and ease of access to everything makes it worth it!

6/10

only 1 elevator in the hotel was working, the wait time was aggravating . the elevator for the parking garage was slow as a turtle.
2-night trip

6/10

It was ok, the parking lot was not connected to the hotel. All elevators were broken except one. It was very hard for us since we needed ADA and there was no parking remotely close to the elevators. The room I got didn’t have a bench in the shower as advertised on the pictures. The pull out mattress was also like 2 in thick and very hard to lay on. The service however was nice they came when needed. It was more of the other little issues and struggles that made it difficult.
2-night trip

8/10

Fantastic location and an ideal hotel for family trips. The free breakfast buffet and bar were a great bonus. The only drawback was having just one elevator in operation.
