Comfortable Hotel
Checkin was smooth. Hotel is clean and comfortable. Pet friendly, which is fine, but a poor dog across the hall from us was crying on and off for 2 hours around 8pm. Upon check out the desk manager was unfriendly and rude and couldn’t print me a receipt. Otherwise, nice stay.

Nice area. We were disappointed in having reserved a king room then they had none available due to overselling. We were downsized to a queen and charged the same. We could hear our neighbors through the walls partying and doing other 'activities'. Was a bit disturbing.

Hotel seemed just a little understaffed. Overall clean but hallways seemed like they dont get staff walking them every day. (Little bits of wrapper mid hallway there at 1pm the day of check in still there at 10am check out). Polite service that took care of the tv system not working in the room with a transfer of room.
