Service was awful. Our room did not get cleaned once during our 5 night stay, we had to go to the front desk to ask for new towels and even when we did go down there they didn’t have any cleaned. Anytime one of us went to take a shower the water the ice cold. The back of the bathroom door was stapled together.

It was a good stay. The check in was pleasant and the room was clean & beds were extremely comfortable. The pool was nice & clean. The only con was the breakfast was pretty lame. Only coffee, cereal & waffles & bread. No fruit or juice or yogurt. But it’s free so it wont stop me from staying again as everything else was great.

There was no elevator. The breakfast was not great just cereal, yogurts, bread/cereal, and waffle machine. The said they remodeled the room was fine but the bathroom was not clean and there was spray paint all over the door. The hallways were iffy and there were weird smells in the hallways at all times.

Dissatisfied

I think the building looked run down, cracked glass on the door, not all doors were working to get in and out of the hotel. It didn’t look too appealing for the price we paid. Yes it was close to where we had to go, but the price was ridiculous for that one night stay.

Let me start with the positives. The lady at the front desk was very nice. She seems to be working three peoples jobs. We checked in at 9 PM and she told us that she only had two rooms left and one was on the second floor, and the other was on the first floor. This seemed odd because we made the reservation several months ago and thought that we had requested the room to be close together. She also told us that they were still cleaning rooms from the night before which also seemed odd being that it was 9 PM. The room was in serious need of an update. It looks like they were in the middle of a remodeling project that was being done by a friend of theirs. There was spackle all over the tub. The door would not close to the bathroom all the way. There was painters tape on the door. There were stains on the walls. There was fabric missing from the chairs. The room itself was in a word noisy. The fridge made terrible noise all night. The air conditioner is extremely loud and keeps you up with the entire night. The windows do not help insulate from all the parking lot sounds. The door does not help insulate from the hallway sounds. In a nutshell, we barely slept. This went for both rooms on the first floor and on the second floor. In the morning we had breakfast which was bagels muffins and two waffle makers. The waffle makers were very nice but the entire room for everyone to work in was maybe 150 sq ft. Not a good hotel.
