"Very nice hotel."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Room was very clean. Hotel itself was clean and well maintained. Employees were very nice and helpful. Only problem is that the heat in the room was almost unbearable. We tried to turn the air down but nothing seemed to work. If we were staying more than one night we would have requested someone to look at it, but for one night we could deal with it.
