The staff member who checked us in on 2/3 was very helpful. He seemed to care about the hotel guests as he explained very clearly the key policy and how the hotel maintains a secure environment for guests. I wish I had gotten his name. Not only was he competent, but he was friendly and warm.

The staff at the property were courteous and nice. The walkway out front was a huge concern. They have a sign at the top of the stairs to be careful slippery when wet type thing but at the base of the stairs nothing. We were there with several athletes and I was so scared one of them would fall walking in the building and get seriously hurt. It is painted with high gloss paint and no grip on the stairs or the entrance walkway. Very dangerous and needs to be addressed. Another random small thing is, no trash can in the bathroom or place to put your toiletries while showering. Overall the stay was ok though.
