Acceptable Stay but Several Issues
dog-friendly diningparking lot lighthallway light
The hotel allowed me to dine with my dog in the bar, convenient
My room faced the parking area, and headlights shone through the windows. Noise from other rooms kept me awake past midnight for quite some time water pipes seemed to be the source. I found the hallway light also disturbed my sleep it seeped under the door
the breakfast selection included many choices and i enjoyed it. the staff were helpful with directions to local attractions. the location was close to the playhouse theatre a short walk away i found this very convenient
my room was quite basic and could use some updating specifically the carpets seemed worn i think new carpets would improve the room
