The property was nice, however, there was construction going on behind the property so that was not great to try and sit out ono the patio and enjoy outside with the dirt and construction going on behind the hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The bed sheets didnt smell clean, the sound control was poor. You could hear everything, which is sad because it's a newer hotel. When I checked in, the guy at front desk was not welcoming at all.
