I appreciated the friendly staff, those working the afternoon, evening and early morning shifts. Hotel was clean. Room was clean, no odors or any significant inconvenience. I liked the amount of body wash, etc., available for our use. Plenty of towels. No microwave in the room so guests have to use the microwave downstairs by the front desk. Only real complaint was the Keurig coffee machine in the room. The coffee tasted terrible even though we used bottled water. There was no breakfast available. That would have been nice to have. Construction was a bit of an eyesore but it didn’t directly impact our stay. Parking area was small due to items for renovation laid out, but it wasn't full so that was okay. Television had plenty of channels to watch, which was good. It was a pleasant stay.

The hotelbwas noisy & under construction, neither of which were mentioned on your website. The continental breakfast was very good. I was extremely disappointed in Expedia for not having a cancelation policy, when the hotels you suggest, are not at all what they represented themselves to be. Unacceptable!
