We stayed at this hotel for one night as an impromptu get-away. We had never heard of it and had never been to that part of the city, so it was a new experience all around. Check in was quick and easy. We rented a studio room with a queen bed and a sleeper sofa. There was a kitchenette well stocked with plates, cups, silverware, and other basic cooking items. Bottles of water were available for $6 each, but we didn’t indulge. The room was spacious with high ceilings making it feel even bigger than a typical room. Areas of the room showed some wear such as the couch cushions, the chair cushions, the walls, parts of the carpet, and the bathroom floor, but overall it was pretty clean. The hotel was booked that particular night so we expected some added commotion, but weren’t so happy when the loud hallway traffic was still going on at 3am. Unfortunately, there didn’t seem to be any involvement from hotel staff to monitor the area for the comfort of other guests. The complimentary breakfast was a nice surprise and was fully stocked with eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit, yogurt, muffins, juices, milk, coffee, etc. There is a pool area which is designed for kids with a train depot theme. This area was packed when we went during the afternoon, but we still had a good time while we were there. This hotel is also just across the parking lot from the Depot Ice Skating Rink which was so much fun to use before we left town. Overall: I would stay here again, but may look for other options in the area if I had more time to plan.
