Beds are clean and hotel is generally okay. But walls are stained in the room and the hotel in general seems to lack care and attention to details. Staff was kind.
In suite jacuzzi was so perfect and fenced in patio was a nice touch just wish it was better maintained maybe a fire pit more lights seating flowers you know make it feel like a vaction sort of thing
The property was very clean and neat and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

The property is tired and somewhat over priced. The counter staff were somewhat courteous and the kitchen staff were very accommodating. The breakfast menu was limited compared to other hotels in the chain.
The room it was very clean and enough space the only one problem in the room was the toilet bowl that it wasn’t flushing well, about the staff the front desk woman that we meet for the check in and check out she wasn’t kind with us very poor service no eye contact with customer not smiling we where like invisible to her she just gave us the keys and without welcoming us very poor reception. But the overnight service it was good I mean, with others staff that replaced her when she left.
Had a nice time staying at this hotel. Really good location by the 401. Very polite and friendly staff. Decent breakfast options as well. Overall it was a good experience.
