Horrible hospitality
I was packing and focused after a long week. I wasn’t paying attention and left my room without a mask. When I came in from my car, The lady at the front desk(Laura I believe) decided she would yell out in front of everybody that I needed to get a mask on! First off it was not intentional, second, her approach was aggressive. If it meant that much to her to say something, then she could have acted as an adult! What she did was inexcusable and had zero tact! If this is the hospitality you chose to present to your guests then I will make the proper requests to assure business goes elsewhere!
Excellent Stay!
Stayed here for a few nights when in town for a wedding. Was very impressed with the hotel considering the rate (especially compared to what hotels in the city were going for). Room was spacious and clean (and renovated) and the staff was well organized and friendly at check-in. Parking was free and it was only a 12-15 dollar uber into the city (most downtown hotels charge a crazy amount for parking). There was no continental breakfast, but they offered a few free items in the marketplace (oatmeal, coffee and fruit) which was sufficient for us. Also, use of the laundry area was free (had to buy detergent), but that is a nice perk. Workout room looked nice. There was a brewery behind the hotel and another within a mile (both with food trucks). This hotel looks to be geared towards extended stays (they only do housekeeping once a week and you have to ask for extra towels), but if you understand this going in, it is a great place to stay!
Good size rooms
The rooms are nicely sized with a full kitchen. When travelling with children this is always a bonus, however someone set the fridge to maximum cold so all our food froze. Not sure if it was the same prankster, but the alarm clock was also set and went off at 9:45pm. Thanks for waking our child.
Clean rooms with kitchens
The rooms were clean and had plenty of room for my husband in a wheelchair. Also large table area for eating and nice kitchen for cooking or warming leftovers. No breakfast, just free coffee. Packages for available for purchase.
