Stay was good, and hotel and service was great. Was not impressed that the movie rental service was not available due to me pre-booking and the hotel was not able to provide for some reason. Also the parking cost has increased to $20 a night, this is substansially higher than the last time we stayed at this hotel. I feel the cost of the parking should be included with the cost of the stay.

Great stay!
When arrived to checkin, we were told that credit card didnt go through. The front desk attendant let us check in anyway until we could resolve the problem with hotels.com
The next day the hotel was very understanding of our situation as problem was corrected. The pool/hotub was very nice and complimentary breakfast was excellent!

We will be repeat customers
My fiancé and I loved our stay. Our room was clean and comfy! We loved the fact that the pool was opened till 11PM and that check out was not till 12PM. The pool was warm and relaxing; the only downside was we believed the pool had too much chlorine in it. Other then that we loved our stay and would like to stay again.

I prepaid for parking that was not available and was not given a refund. The room was dirty, the hallways and elevator were dirty. The hotel was in terrible part of town. We stayed elsewhere and lost $380 on this one night reservation

Our room could have been a little cleaner - mirror was hastily cleaned with streaks - Ceiling fan in the Bathroom is very dirty.
There was a strong odour of cooked food in the lobby of the hotel - not fresh and clean as one would hope for.

Everybody got sick when we came home with respiratory illness because of the swimming pool chlorine smell at 2nd floor. We were on the far end of the hallway but still the smell was so strong. We all started coughing the following day but no point changing rooms because we were already going home.
