It has more than 200 hotel guest rooms, all with coffee makers, microwaves, fridges, and in-room safes, making the hotel perfect for short-term or long-term visitors to the area. Visitors will also enjoy the Fitness Center, heated indoor pool, outdoor seasonal pool, BizNet Center for faxing and Internet access, and complimentary deluxe continental breakfast served by Scenarios Restaurant.
The Clarions Conference Center and Ballroom were also renovated, providing area businesses and residents with a high-value option for events of all kinds.
