"All aspects were fine. Nothing terrible and nothing outstanding. 2 nights were enough there. The hotel needs to get a more personable person at the front desk. I found her to be a bit abrupt. All others I interacted in were just fine. It is in need of refurbishing. Showing signs in getting rundown. Parking wasn’t as good as described."
