For the prices charged, the room should have been much cleaner. Its a large facility which is fine for conventions, etc. If looking for something more intimate I'd suggest other options

This was an excellent stay! We stayed at a few very nice hotels on our trip, but the breakfast really made the difference in deciding where to stay on our return trip. It was very clean and secure!

Loved staying at the Blue Gate. The breakfast was amazing, definitely the best hotel breakfast I have ever had. The walk around the property is long. Our room was down a long corridor on the third floor. There were only one set of elevators at the front of the building. My elderly aunt had a hard time making the walk with her rolling walker. Next time I will plan to make reservations farther in advance to guarantee we are closer to the front door, and book a handicap room.
