Best thing about this hotel is the attached restaurant/bar. Very goods drinks and food at a responsible price. Wish the hotel had a better breakfast. You could tell the bagels and english muffins were sitting out a few days as they were rock hard. Hot fresh coffee by 4:30am every day was much appreciated. Staff was very friendly. Rooms were super clean but could use a little cosmetic work.

Disliked: Amenities
Windows and screens were broken, shower leaked and everything is very outdated. The beds were rock hard, pillows were flat and the towels were tiny. They didn’t have housekeeping so if you needed anything you had to ask the front desk. Definitely overpriced for what you get

The room was a suite it had two rooms and only one of the rooms had and air conditioner. Abe it was on the second floor. There was no way the air was going to get to the bedroom. It was 90 plus degrees outside that day. We had to sleep on the couch and recliner. They need to add a unit to the bedroom.
