I enjoyed my stay, however they need to use sheets and towels without any stains because our first thought was "They didn't change the sheets and gave us dirty towels". I really loved the kitchenette, it was very useful for us. I think the breakfast needs an upgrade and the Gym needs some more weights. You do have to take out your own trash when your trash is full. Other than that the stay was good. There wasn't a time where I felt unsafe so that was great.

Nice, clean rooms. Strange, almost burnt smell permeated the hallway on third floor. Paltry, sad breakfast selection.

The person at the front desk was friendly and helpful. The grounds, lobby and hallways were clean and well maintained, though the lobby was very sparse. Drinks and snacks were available via vending machines. As for the room... well... The bathroom countertop had some sort of permanent brown stains (at least I think they were oermanent. I wasn't about to touch them.) The faucet in the tub was coming off the wall, the faucet's handle fell off in my hand when I turned it, and the drain plug in the tub was broken off. The bed was kind off strange... it was very stiff. When I sat on the edge of it, the other side lifted up. And there was no box spring, jut the mattress on a raised steel frame like a memory foam mattress would use. It wasn't super uncomfortable, but it wasn't super comfortable, either. Just kind of strange.

It was clean, beds were ok, not as comfortable for the price. I liked that they had a stove, microwave and refrigerator in the room. The gentleman that checked us in was nice. The lady that was working early morning setting up the coffee was not friendly, she needs better customer skills. Asked for later check out and they did not accommodate the request even though the place was so expensive in the first place. $300 very expensive for that type of hotel and no breakfast, no swimming pool. I feel like I got ripped off.
