"Room was nice and clean, bed was comfortable.
Very disappointed that the ice machine was completely empty! Expected more from a hotel of this caliber."
"Let me first say the hotel staff was very nice. The hotel was clean but becoming outdated.
Walls(ceiling mostly) are paper thin - I would highly recommend requesting the top floor. The people above me seemed to be up late hours and you can hear them walking around constantly above you. I walked to the desk to let the receptionist know. She was very nice and called them to ask to keep it down but that didn’t happen.
The WiFi barely works. Keeps kicking you offline. Tried to play white noise to distract me from the loud walking above my room but didn’t have a solid WiFi connection to allow that - and didn’t have cell service in the building so couldn’t use my data instead.
Woke up to a spider in my bed. That was not pleasant. Had to deal with that also at 3am. So needless to say I didn’t get a lick of sleep.
Overall I would not stay here again. I understand the walking upstairs is not the hotel staffs fault but it definitely could have been constructed with better sound proofing.

"The property was nice overall but one of the main reasons I picked this property was the hot tub and upon arriving we were told hot tub was out of service this was a major disappointment. The beds were comfortable and location was great."
