Stayed here for 6 nights during the recent snow and ice storm. My companion was down with pnuemonia, so we stayed put for warmth. This hotel is basic. The room we reserved on line was under rehab. I asked for a room with a sitting area. The last room on the top floor, furthest from the lobby, dining room, bar etc. was what I got. It was quiet and warm. There should be reserved parking area for hotel guests, spaces are at a premium most of the day and night. The bar is closed on weekends??? Dining is the same menu everyday, no specials, no variety of vegetables.etc. Breakfast is the same thing everyday, as well. They need to learn how to cook bacon, crispy, not fatty. Ech!!! This was my second stay here, and it is not what it used to be. The staff is rude at the reception, and too many shift changes in the dining room, during rush hour cause poor service and errors. Van de Valk needs to upgrade all their hotels, especilly the menus and add variety for long term guests. This place maybe okay for 1 night travelers, I don't think I will return for a third time. It used to be very good. Too Bad!!
