Reviews and Ratings
Upon arrival, I was greeted with a heavy cigarette smoke smell outside my room at 3:30 in the morning, making it difficult to sleep. Despite this, the location is close to necessary spots, ideal for business or leisure travelers.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the location was very convenient with good dining options around, the room had some cleanliness issues and the service was lacking in friendliness. The dining experience was not satisfactory due to limited breakfast options.
The hotel had a very strong cigarette-smoke smell in the rooms and needed minor repairs in several areas, but it was a decent choice for a graduation trip.
