Anna, Jun 2022
My only complaint is that despite my Marriott status and being a Marriott cardholder, they only gave me an extended checkout that was 30 min later than the normal one. Also the toiletries in the lobby are WAY overpriced. You charged my husband $3.50 for 2 advil pills. That’s ridiculous.

Cons (-) The smell of human waste greeted us when we went into our room. I’m not a building mechanic, but I think there may have been something wrong with the plumbing’s ventilation system. We told the staff who”s solution was to spray air freshener, which is fine until the freshener stops freshening. Everything else was fine. But having to walk into your room and smell

Phil, Jun 2016
Pros (+) The Hotel is located on a corner, and has a gym that over looks the road on the ground floor. There is a bar and a small breakfast area on the ground floor. My room was on the 6th floor, it was quiet, modern, excellent work area, and internet was fast. Usual excellent bed, coffee machine worked, fridge was cold, shower could have been a bit more water pressure but did the job.
Cons (-) For the price $100 I could not fault it.
