The staff were very friendly and professional. Breakfast was very good. This is an older hotel which room doors open to the breezeway, this can lead to some concerns when other guests are noisy or are not considerate.

Liked: Cleanliness
convenient location with average amenities. Front desk staff were unfriendly and minimalist. Security and valet staff were much friendlier and helpful.
Room was clean and updated, provided breakfast was good, valet parking price and convenience was worth it. Will look at staying again.

Beds were comfortable. Can tell they are working to keep up condition of place. Not having a lobby elevator was difficult but at least our car was parked near the garage elevator. Bar was disappointing.
