Quiet, peaceful. Good place for relaxation. Close to downtown shopping and dining. But, all advertised amenities were not yet available, somewhat of a disappointment.

:) 1) Renovation was well executed for the rooms and commons. 2) Great location. 2 blocks to town square. 3) Quiet. 4) Clean. 5) Free bicycle use. :( 1) Poor breakfast offering including the coffee. 2) Restaurant and Nordic spa were still under construction and appeared to be several months from being completed.

Liked: Staff & service
We reserved a garden king with fireplace and were placed in a dog friendly king looking at the parking lot. the room smelled like dog urine. No other rooms left for that night but were moved to another alternate room, double no fireplace. Staff was friendly. The outdoor area/firepit is a nice place to gather and meet others. The Nordic Spa was not working so we could not enjoy that. Restaurant and Bar will open Jan 2025 we were told.

Christopher

Liked: Amenities
Disliked: Staff & service
Disappointed. The reason for my review: Beware - they actively overbook the balcony rooms (happened to myself and at least one other group that I am aware of). And as your check in day is within the window of no cancel/refund you will be ushered to a standard room with no refund for the price difference. Of note: We were offered an available “garden room” as a consolation, but upon opening the door we were taken aback with a strong urine smell. This headache has required multiple trips to the front desk and now multiple calls to hotels.com customer service all with me still stuck with paying the higher room rate per night. Other than overbooking: The rooms do look like the pictures… but the rear of the hotel (which is where the garden and balcony rooms are located) overlook the parking lot and the common areas which provides limited privacy and car hood views unlike the pictures imply. The staff was nice, but they are obviously working through staff, system, and process hiccups (issues) as a recently opened hotel.
