Phase one of the project is nearing completion and includes 90 newly renovated rooms and five suites. Phase two will include a remodeling of the property’s entrance and other public area upgrades, which includes upgrades to the hotel’s restaurant and lounge, and a new pool, fitness area and outdoor patio.
