5.0/10

My stay at this hotel was quite frustrating. I experienced issues with the room assignments, which resulted in being moved to a less convenient location, and the amenities were showing their age. While the staff did try to be helpful, I felt unsafe during my stay, especially with the parking situation. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Rooms

The room I ended up with was old and worn out, with multiple leaks in the ceiling and dampness throughout the stay.

Service

The staff was not particularly helpful when issues arose, and management seemed unresponsive to concerns.

Location

The hotel is located far from the initial destination I needed to reach, as I was moved to another property.

Dining

Dining options were very basic and not appealing, with limited offerings available.
