It’s convenient to many places. I wasn’t happy that I didn’t get points for my stay for the reason that I booked it through a third party.

No Tv, no service. I was safe & the coffee was ok.

One light was out. The clock was off by 6 hrs. But worse, the tv said “no signal” and I had to wait on hold for a while, gave up called again, someone said they would fix the tv. I waited an hour, called again, on hold again. Finally I gave up and did not have a tv. Later in the evening I went down and let the front desk know. The manager said, “I’ll take not of it.” That’s it. In the night, the heater made a routine beep that would wake me up.

I will start by saying the fix almost everything by the second night. We stayed two nights and when we arrived the sink handle was broken and the ac didn’t work. We called the front desk and they sent someone up. They couldn’t fix it then but we gave them permission to come back if we weren’t there. This was at 430, the didn’t show up again till 9pm. The only rang the phone twice we didn’t have time to answer and then they came knocking wanting to fix things. We have a little and she was
