Negative Reviews
negative:
Renovations Underway
Though some renovations have been recently completed and others are still underway, guests still found the majority of accommodations in need of an update. The carpets and furnishings appear old, the A/C isn't the strongest, and the water pressure is poor. In addition, some rooms and facilities could use a cosmetic touch up.
negative:
Modern Technology
The Wi-Fi is complimentary but the signal is weak and spotty. Several guests had trouble connecting to, or surfing the internet. In addition, guests were disappointed in the limited number of TV channels available.
negative:
Limited Parking
The hotel's underground parking garage can be full at times. Fortunately, there is a second, public garage adjacent to the hotel. Furthermore, you may find the hotel garage's spaces a bit tight if you have a large car, so exercise caution when parking.
