One elevator out of service. Fridge in room not working. For breakfast you have to go out front door and walk next door to another hotel. Room was quiet and comfortable. Just the whole place needs to take care of the small issues. Would stay again

Disorganized

The hotel was shut down for renovations. They did not answer phone (it rang out) or forward calls to the hotel next door where one of the two rooms we reserved had been transferred. Very poor processing. The stay at the Quality Inn next door was good once they gave us the 2nd room.
