"The hotel staff were very polite and helpful. The small onsite parking area was closed for construction so parking was a bit of a problem. The hotel did validate the offsite parking fees which was very helpful."

"I really like this property. We had a two room apt with kitchen and washer and dryer. It would be great for a stay of longer than 1day. Our only issue was the hot water, there was none! They fixed it but too late for us to enjoy."
