Mattress was terrible. Workmanship when rooms were renovated looks like amateurs did it. TV on/off didn't work. sink strainer looks like someone took a hammer to it. artwork panels crooked and hanging off wall. Floor in hallway constantly wet like there is a leak somewhere. Breakfast was basically all breads with 1 fruit, raisin bran and stale fruit loops. We won't be back, and I recommend this place changes hands and gets cleaned up.

This is a pet friendly hotel. Walls are quite thin and you can clearly hear water passing through pipes, people talking, and many other noises such as the ice machine and washing and dryer. There are clearly guests there who are staying long term, which is fine, however the heavy smells of meat frying were permeating the halls and were quite nauseating to smell. We had asked to stay on the other floor because of this and the front desk clerk was very accommodating. When we arrived in our new room we saw what appeared to be a large paw print on the bottom sheet. We requested new sheets and that was done. When we woke up there were a couple of german cockroaches (Ty Google Lens) crawling on the walls. Thankfully the floors in the rooms were not carpeted. They looked updated and appeared clean . The main hallways , however were disgustingly dirty. Carpets should be removed. The bathroom door of our room did not shut all the way and the door to our main room had a large, visible gap where you could see into the hallway. We chose this place because it was affordable, pet friendly, and we had a family member in another room and they brought their dog. We also chose it because it had a pool and served breakfast. To be honest, the poor condition of the facility turned us off to using the pool and eating the breakfast, which also looked unappealing. We ended up eating at Dunkin Donuts.

The place was clean and in a convenient location. The ac/heat unit was very noisy and loud. Anytime someone upstairs flushed the toilet, we heard the water gushing down the pipes right next to our heads while in bed.
