The desk staff,particularly Dan & Michael were very helpful & kind. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to potential visitors,and will stay there on any future visit. more

This place was Drama in full motion. They change Hotel policy right before your eyes. The front desk was out of a hollywood movie, B movie, Drama Queens. All I would say is, try some other place, unless you like to give people a Royal Reading. The T.V. show the "Monsters", I was thinking went off the airwaves years ago,... more
