We stayed in that hotel in the past, we did notice that it's renovated, but a they missed a few details, toilet was clogged in one of my rooms, and exhaust fan was working in the other one. Breakfast was good, overall cleanliness was good.

Me and my best friend got a room for the night to get a peaceful night away from the kids... Just for my children to get into a car accident with their dad. Truck was totaled, and the sweet lady let me bring me kids in the room when we finally got back... And even made us a late check out so we could get some sleep. We will try again on our stress free night another time, here. Because it was amazing

Need to fix things and inspect rooms b4 booking

Our room had only 1 chair to set at the table, so the 2 of us could not eat at the table and there was only one table in the room. The closet had not light inside, which made it very dark and hard to use. The coffee maker did not work. I was glad that we were on the 1st floor close to the front desk and the breakfast buffet. The plug next to the bed on the side closest to the window did not work.
