3 STARS OVERALL
Your staff was amazing & very friendly & the location was perfect for us. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star all the way around was that first, hotel seemed a little run down & second, our smoke alarm was chirping the in the middle of the night & the first time I called to the front desk, there was not an answer after 25-30 rings. I was getting ready to walk down to the desk, & they answered the second time & came right up to fix the chirping.

Over all nice but needs some maintenance
Staff were very friendly and helpful. The heat in th rooms was very hot (had to open windows that had no safety measures for falling out) and seemed out of th guest’s control. There was no coffee in th rooms.
