The staff was polite, but a few things caught me off guard. When I called ahead and mentioned I was bringing my dog, no one informed me of a pet fee—or a parking fee—so it was a surprise to be charged for both upon arrival. The hotel itself feels dated, and the elevator was questionable—it screeched loudly and even gave my husband a mild shock. Overall, not the experience I expected. Clearer communication and a few upgrades would go a long way.
