The staff provided a warm greeting when I arrived. Check-in was flawless and efficient. My room had two comfortable beds, each with four pillows and lovely linen. I found an ample selection of drinks and snacks in the mini bar for purchase.

The bathroom felt dated and not up to par with the rest of the hotel. I found that it lacked the finer touches I would expect from a hotel of this caliber. The outdoor parking was available, but the facilities and amenities within the main areas and rooms seemed old.
