We have stayed at this hotel many times over the years. This time the place seemed a bit more rundown and not as clean as usual. We love the spacious room we stayed in, and the price was fair.

I arrived later in the day and after staff had closed the office, but they made sure I was able to get into my room, putting a lot of thought into it and reaching out to me for instructions. The room was a good sized one, although the windowed door was a curiosity I had never seen before.
