Stayed in accessible room: outlets by bed were too lose to keep a charger. Accessible room did not have enough room around the bed for a wheelchair to move around safely. Bathroon was okay but would be awesome if the toiletry pumps were located by the actual bench. Breakfaat was okay with hot and cold options. I travel with a service dog andit is noce that they have an onsite dog park.

The main reason I keep staying at this hotel is because the staff is very friendly and caring about their guests. Evening gatherings with free food and free breakfast make it very convenient to be on the go. The room was ok even if there was a strong smell in the room probably due to the fact that had not been used in a while.
