6.6/10

My recent stay was quite disappointing, especially for a long-time loyal customer. The hotel has numerous maintenance issues that should be addressed, but the location is convenient for accessing attractions. The service was hit or miss, and the amenities did not match what was advertised, making it feel overpriced for what was offered.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms had some cleanliness issues, including dirty towels and a bathtub hair, and were not made until I returned late. They were nothing like I expected based on the images in the listing.

Service

5.0

While one staff member was gracious, the overall service was lacking in friendliness, and issues were slow to be addressed, making my experience frustrating.

Location

8.0

The location was great, allowing easy access to downtown and nearby attractions, which was a definite plus for my stay.

Dining

5.0

The dining situation was disappointing; there was very limited breakfast available, and I had to leave the hotel to find coffee.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel facilities were underwhelming; the amenities did not meet my expectations given the price, and the areas felt outdated.
