5.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms had a hot tub and a fireplace, which was nice. However, the cleanliness was a major issue, from the dirty floors to a terrible smell lingering in the hallways and elevator. The price did not match the quality. I would not recommend this hotel due to the lack of cleanliness and overpricing.

The hotel room was comfortable, but could use some updating. Imagine in a few years there will be some major upgrades, but it smelled of old stale cigarette smoke. Despite that, it was a great stay overall.

Although the room could use a little TLC and updating, I found it comfortable. The smell of old stale cigarette smoke was a downside. Looking forward to the potential upgrades.

The service was beyond polite, friendly, and helpful. They were quick in changing the room, even though it was a single bed instead of a queen or king. Overall, providing good service at this difficult time.

The dining experience was average with limited choices and cold food. However, the made-to-order option at the Broad St Pub was a highlight. There was room for improvement in the menu offerings.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, close to everything I needed, but the rooms could have been more spacious for the price paid. The service was a mixed bag with friendly staff but in need of some updates. The dining options were basic, and the facilities were adequate overall.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms, unfortunately, could have been more spacious for the money paid. The fold-out couch was broken, and the service seemed to be limited to just replacing towels, which was disappointing. The noise level made it hard to get a good night's sleep.

Service

The staff were friendly but the service seemed to be lacking in some areas. While they provided some nice touches like a complimentary To-Go-Cup of coffee in the morning, there were instances where they seemed put out when asked questions.
