Not excellent , but passable.
We chose this hotel based on some of the "excellent" reviews. The room was clean and spacious. The bed was comfortable, but my wife did not like the pillows. Breakfast was limited, with not much variety. The trash was almost overflowing. The waffle machine made an irritating beep non-stop, and when we brought it to the desk clerk's attention, she said, "it does that sometimes. Just turn it off." We had already checked out of our room when we went down to breakfast, and the restroom in the breakfast area was closed to non-employees. Overall, the stay was okay, but did not live up to the "excellent" reviews.

This hotel charged a deposit for incidentals or damage. This deposit was substantially higher than all the other hotels I stayed at during a cross country trip. They said my deposit would be refunded in 5-6 days. I did not damage the room or have any incidental charges. When I checked my credit card statement 11 days after my stay I saw that they had not refunded my deposit. I phoned the hotel and asked them about it. They said I smoked in the room so they were keeping my deposit. I do not smoke, nor does my travel companion. We did not even light a match in that room. When I disputed this with the assistant manager he just said I signed a paper stating I wouldn’t smoke. He was very disagreeable and did not offer any hope that they would return my deposit. I suspect this is a scam and a way to overcharge for mediocre lodging. Travelers beware!!!

The bed and the pillows were way too hard, the drain in the tub was broken, and the complimentary shampoo dried out my hair and the TV did not work . Though the room was spacious and looked nice, it just was not comfortable
