This felt like a dying hotel. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, but proclaimed at check-in that there was no housekeeping available and ice and vending machines were on the first floor only (of three floors). The pool/gym area windows were all papered over, the room was clean but tired looking and sparse (we debated if the bed had been made up or not and decided the sheets were just wrinkled), the curtains were torn, there was no soap in the bathroom. Breakfast was sufficient to say that breakfast is offered, so while we appreciated the early 6am start time, we skipped. There aren’t a lot of options in this area, so I guess they figure they can charge high prices during conference times for extremely average accommodations. It wasn’t awful but we’d stay elsewhere given the option. Kind of a sad place.

Peaceful slumber Our stay was fine! We were glad to have a hotel with power as most of the area was without electricity due to a major storm earlier in the day. Breakfast was very good! Our biggest complaint was about the bathroom. We had a handicap accessible room and the bathroom door would not stay open. We were able to manage, but a person in a wheelchair or with a walker would have difficulties.
