Hotel staff made our stay successful!
"We stayed at the Executive Inn for 4 nights, as it was recommended by our friend who was hosting a number of events over an extended weekend. There was a mix-up (or a misstep) upon our arrival - the room we booked was not available even though I had booked it way in advance, given a deposit, reconfirmed the night before, and alerted them that we'd be arriving from the airport late.

There was no indication that we wouldn't be getting the Deluxe King Waterview room. In any case, the staff remained professional and did everything they could to get us to the correct room the next day. (The other King room they gave us for the first night was still water view but it was smaller and didn't have a solid wall between the bedroom and bathroom vanity area - not ideal.)

After that minor glitch, our stay went very well. All the staff, including manager Miguel T and various other employees, were welcoming, very accommodating and gracious. (By the way, when we called down to the front desk to get the internet code that first night, personnel who answered the phone seemed to know about our situation and apologized again, assuring us that things would be taken care of first thing when the manager arrived. Nice touch.) I'd read TA reviews about the staff and I was very glad that those glowing reviews were true!

Since the property is in the middle of renovations, I do hope they consider upgrading their so-called gym. It was a very small room with a treadmill, I think a bike, and multi-purpose machine. I couldn't imagine trying to work out with another person in the room - it was just too small with limited equipment and would get stuffy quickly.

Otherwise, the hotel was a good choice due to its courteous staff, fine breakfast, free Internet, and pretty water view. I would stay here again when I'm next in the area."
Would definitely recommend the Executive Inn & Suites to friends and business connections!
"Would definitely recommend the Executive Inn & Suites to friends and business connections!
Stayed at the Executive Inn and Suites for well over a year on a weekly basis and I never had a bad experience!

The entire staff of the Executive Inn and Suites were engaging and attentive to all the guests during my visits there. Staff are amazing, both at the desk, in hotel services, and in the bar/restaurant areas. The staff at the front desk always greeting me with a warm smile and called me by name. They provided me with information about shuttle services and restaurants anytime I asked. They also operate the shuttle service to and from the airport and other area businesses. In the maintenance and hotel services staff, if something was amiss in my room, they were prompt to address the issue. If I needed anything special, they were always responsive. And the staff in the bar/restaurant areas were a delight. They always greeted me with a warm and friendly smile. They even graciously addressed my special dietary issues. They made me feel like family, whether I sat at a table with a laptop working or sitting quietly in the bar area. I feel like I'm leaving family!!!

I experienced both the pre- and post-remodeling of the facility and it's very glamorous and comfortable. I was comfortable in the pre-remodeled facility, but it was a delight when the rooms were remodeled. The facilities were updated and are quite stylish and comfortable. I was fortunate to have a waterfront room, and the view was amazing! I took advantage of the pool and hot tub and again was quite pleased. I even used the workout area facilities. I was very satisfied with the physical property; even the outside area was well groomed and well maintained.

I led a team of 5 others and we all stayed at the Executive Inn and Suites - we had a delightful experience there and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. I recommend the Executive Inn and Suites without hesitation.

Room Tip: Even numbered rooms are water front views."
Great Hotel Excellent location & Views, Friendly staff
"The Hotel is superb, great location by the riverside with nice views and balcony. The staff were all friendly and courteous. Our bedroom was large and had all the facilities we needed, including microwave, fridge, coffee/tea maker, TV, and free internet etc. wonderful. There was free transport by the hotels minibus to rail station, town and even the local bars. Buffett breakfast had plenty of choice and was available in the dining room overlooking the river.

Free newspapers/cookies on the reception counter, Wonderful. The hotel didn't have a bar, which was a shame, but there was a local bar 10-minute walk away. Overall a really pleasant stay and we look forward to returning one day."
