CATFISHED for sure!!!!

The photos did not show what the room or hotel actually looked like. The rooms in the photos were fresh and clean in reality they were beat up. The outlets in the room were bad to were the lamps in the room would not even stay plugged in nor would our phone chargers.After one use of Kleenex to box was totally empty first thing in the morning. Our room was in a corner section on the second floor ..all night long we heard doors banging shut and multiple people banging on someone's room door. Could only find 10 channels on the TV..the fridge was turned all the way up and did not keep our waters cold at all...the bed itself seemed clean and we checked it but still felt uncomfortable sleeping all night... In the morning we found that the stairway door and entrance door closet to our room were both propped open for easy access.We left 2hrs before check out and there were no signs of the Continental breakfast they advertised,tables had the chairs on top of them so no one could even sit in the area . The parking lot was trash...seen 2 separate cars changing there cars oil while there catch cans were over flowing all over the parking lot and one pickup truck along with 3 others cleaning out there vehicles dumping garbage in a separate part of the parking lot. Over priced for the dates we needed for our stay. Prices dropped drastically by almost $100 for the next weekend. There actual website shows totally different photos which I should have checked before I booked

Corporate Choice clearly doesn't visit their hotel

Hotel needs an overhaul. Furniture in bad shape. Our couch was part of a sectional with an arm on only one end so the cushions wouldn't stay on Plus when you sat, it leaned toward the center. Definitely need new mattresses. We booked an efficiency with a kitchenette. It had a 2 burner stovetop, a tiny microwave, a dishwasher and a refrigerator. However, no dishes, silverware or pots/pans. Useless. We booked the room for 3 adults but room was set up for 2. No bedding or towels for 3rd person. Breakfast options are very limited. We could see their "kitchen" space was limited so we could understand only having a couple of hot items, but no pastries, no fresh fruit not even any artificial sweeteners for the coffee. Design of the hotel involves a long hallway from the front desk. Although there were several exits along the way so you could theoretically park near your room, you could only exit. The key readers outside did not work to let you in.

My non-smoking room smelled musty and like stale smoke and when I informed the front desk they said “what you are you in? Oh yeah that room… we’ve cleaned it so many times but there was someone staying in there for a while that didn’t care about the smoking fine. There’s not much I can do for you it’s in the woodwork” and they did not even check to see if any other room was available. I am asthmatic and the smell of stale smoke makes me lightheaded.

The first room I was in the sheets had hair and some other debris all over. The front desk staff was nice and moved me to another room. The other room’s outlets were limited in access or nonworking. I couldn’t charge my phone nor use the hair dryer since the outlet in the bathroom didn’t work and the outlet I could get to, nothing could stay plugged in. The elevated and hallway smelled like weed.
