The location is great. The staff is usually great, but this time they gave me a room that someone was using, however they did correct this, but never explained to me what happened. It seemed as though the person that checked me in had something to do with this situation and I never felt comfortable after that because I was wondering what he was up to. One morning I had no running water for a while in my room which caused me to miss breakfast, again the situation was solved, but cost me some time. Next, every night that I was there my room key didn't work, so I would have to go back to the lobby for them to adjust my key. Other than that it was great to be greeted with smiles everyday

The only issue is that I have is to bring guest, they want another 100 dollars per guest. Even the of the guest won’t be staying the night. Rules are rules however knowing this now, I will not stay again there. If I’m paying top dollar, to stay there I have the right to bring a guest in whenever I want. But because you cannot bring guest and get charged 100 dolasrs I won’t stay here again.
