They were very accommodating when I arrived. I brought my own food and asked for a cutting board, knife and dishes and gave them to me right away. Also, asked and offered that if I needed anything else to just call down to the front desk and they would bring it up. Then in the morning my event that I am in town for got pushed 2 hours and they gave me an extra two hours to check out. Excellent service.

This place is great!
The staff was very friendly. The hotel has been updated and looks amazing. The Christmas decorations were beautiful. The beds were comfortable. I find when we book through Hotels.com we usually get a room that’s not as desirable as others. We’ve had rooms right beside or behind the elevator a few times. In this case, it was right beside the door so we could hear people coming in and out of the hotel wing all night. The doors are thin so it was easy to hear everything in the hallway. We had a “cosy” room which was pretty small, but we didn’t really care. I would definitely stay here again but request not to be right beside the door.
