Moderate/Poor condition in the room

The condition in my room was not so pleasant. The casegoods within the room was poor, I was unable to watch cable tv in my room, and I had to ask at the check-in desk for housekeeping. Also, there were a few markings on the wall and tables. Other than that, the employees was kind.

I was extremely dissatisfied with my charges at Edgar’s, when I picked up my dinner on 3/4/25. I was charged an additional $62.04 for liquor, I did not have. I do not drink. Trying to get this charge removed but not having much luck. I was told I needed to call back.

I was there for a week, and on my night 1 stay, I heard the sounds of an ice machine duming ice, people banging doors when going into the ice machine room, and the bathroom was always dumping loads of water. The biggest catch is that no matter what, you will end up paying for VALLET PARKING out of your pocket as premises doesn't have any non vallet parking. This is bizzarre. I wouldn't recommend staying here at ALL.
