Hotel and staff were wonderful . Spotless. Comfortable. However parking garage was extremely difficult to navigate. Spaces narrow, large posts made turning almost impossible. Not only hard to park, hard to turn vehicles to get out. Can’t imagine if i had a larger than normal vehicle. If they could access nearby lots would really help.

Was not given the room I paid for :-(
My oldest daughter and I made reservations a month in advance. We reserved a room with 2 queen beds. However, when we arrived we were asked if we would be okay with a king bed. I politely said no as we had booked a room with 2 queen beds. I was then told that there were no more queen suites available because the hotel had overbooked. Now, please explain to me how you can overbook the rooms when I reserved this room a month in advance! If you know that your hotel only has a specific amount of queen suites, then you should only book that amount. My daughter and I arrived at the time of check in, so there was no reason for us not to have our room. We also stood at the desk waiting for 10 minutes to check in while the other hotel clerk was on the phone. She never even acknowledged us. Finally another employee came up and asked if she could help us. On a positive note, the room we were given, though very small, was exceptionally clean and we were offered a free snack from the hotel snack bar for our inconvenience. Would I stay here again, sadly no. Out of the three hotel employees that I made contact with, only one of them was courteous and attentive. I travel quite often and was very disappointed with my experience at this hotel.
