Great hotel. Clean, comfortable, and updated. Room was wonderful, food at the pub is great, and staff were friendly & helpful. Only downside was that the staff all seemed to be new to the area and couldn’t answer questions about things to do and see. However, the visitor information center is just a few blocks away and they were incredibly helpful.
Note: the hotel is NOT attached to the mall as the write up says. It is just down the block (this is a plus in my opinion).

My stay was perfect, just for the price I think it’s good to say the breakfast isn’t included, and they only have a coffee pot in the room, so if you just want tea, you’ll also have the smell and taste of coffee
And the Ac are really noisy
Otherwise staff was nice and the hotel really clean, close to downtown

Room was nice. Beds were comfortable. Unfortunately, my daughter found a random pill on the floor in our room. We took it down to the front desk and they didn’t seem to care. Which put a bad taste in my mouth. Also, this is a no cash hotel which wasn’t stated. The children wanted to spend some money in the gift shop that they had saved up and we’re unable to because they don’t accept cash.

The room was nice. The beds were comfortable. Unfortunately my daughter found a random pill on the floor of our room. Which is not OK. The front desk staff did not seem to care. Just so other people know. The hotel does not except cash. If I had known that we would not have stayed there. Our kids wanted to by so things from the gift shop with the money they have been saving and were unable to as they do not take cash.
