I had a great stay at your hotel. But, I do feel there shoud be updates made to the rooms. Carpets should be cleaner. Also, the shower curtain should be removed and a new one hung up.

We booked 2 rooms. Room was nice and big as described. Both room had lots of carpet stains. Shower was very uncomfortable, having only 2 feet between wall and shower curtain was not pleasant, since there was no way to shower without curtain being against you. Check-in staff was OK but parking very limited.
