Poor Experience
I booked my room the afternon before my trip. Unfortunately I had an emergency and had to cancel my entire trip. When I reached out that same evening and explained the situation, I was told that there was nothing they could do because it was policy to cancel by a certain time. I replied back asking for an exception to the rule due the the circumstance. This reply was ignored and I was charged for the room. Heartless people and poor Customer Service all around.

The front desk called our room and asked us if everything was ok and if we needed anything. It was great.

I booked a room for 6 people and get charged extra for that many people and there are only 3 towels in the room. Why do hotels do that? I always have to go ask for more. So irritating. Be prepared for the amount of people expected in the room. They also did not have any more bath towels available at the desk so we had to use small towels.

4/10 Fair

The sound coming out of the overhead system was loud, and competed with the television playing loudly in the lobby. Computer lacked the ability to function, was unable to perform a search for critical information due to wifi being unavailable.The attendant at the front desk did not complete a reset or reboot to reestablish a connection.

10/10 Exceptional

The service was excellent, but do not recommend if you’re a light sleeper, because there as active train track with a rail crossing right behind the hotel. The train passes by every hour or so and blows the horn when passing by the rail crossing. It’s the only thing we didn’t like about our stay.
