It was a nice hotel. Don’t be afraid to say here.
This is a decent hotel. It had a few issues I think that they could focus on the building maintenance a little bit better. We can definitely see that there was water damage in the bathroom at some point and this is the third floor. But overall the hotel was clean. The temperature was nice in the room. The beds were comfortable. The breakfast was good. I would say this is a very well run hotel.

My only complaint is that we have 4 people in a room and they only gave us 3 towels and wash clothes, so every bight we had to ask for an extra one. Very friendly staff, hotel was clean, breakfast was good.

The front desk representative was incredibly helpful, friendly, and accommodating, setting the tone for a great stay. I booked online but was disappointed to find my double queen reservation didn't include a suite. However, the agent made a kind exception and upgraded us to a suite. Our room was clean, comfortable, and spacious, and we enjoyed the spa area and breakfast. I'll definitely return for our next staycation.

Great hotel in the suburbs. Close to Six Flags and not too far away from transportation into the city. Good breakfast options and close to other restaurants. Hot tub wasn't the best.
