4/10 Fair
20 Nov 2024
Loved the location...but...
We loved the location but our room had blacked out windows with absolutely no view. Not what was advertised.
Our room had two large cutout holes in the wall/headboard right over your head on either side. Yuck!!!!! We could see inside the wall and then wonder what might crawl out. Yikes! Then the shirts were so incredibly scratchy it was hard to sleep plus the air conditioner never cooled even on the lowest setting. Plus the tv remote stopped working.

Nice hotel and an excellent location. Rooms were spacious. The bed could’ve been a little more comfortable and shower a bit hotter but other than that it was a nice stay.
