I’ve stayed at this hotel numerous times. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and well maintained. My only criticism is the pre check in communication. Please don’t ask if I have any special requests and then not act on them. For my two night stay, due to mobility issues I requested a walk in shower rather than a bath. My request was completely ignored. Hopefully my next experience will be better.
