Not satisfied with stay at all lady at front desk was very rude things in the room falling apart bed hard the pillows were flatter than a pancake would not recommend to anyone
We did not stay here. The property was run down and dirty looking. Outside, a number of people who appeared to be vagrants were standing around smoking. Inside more people were sitting around the lobby. It looked like a place for homeless and/or recovering addicts. Does not look at all as it appears on your site.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Hot water heater had broken, we were not told. No breakfast of any kind.
When I got to the hotel the front desk had no record of me reserving a room. They were very rude about accommodating to me getting another room and at charge me an extra $10. When we got into the room we found out there was no hot water. Behind the bed was trash and most of the linens hadn't been changed. Very poor facility
Our stay was very good. The TV in our room did not work and when we asked the desk clerk about it, he came immediately and said that one hasn't worked and they were waiting for repair. We were given another room and it was bigger and better!
Stains on the walls, stains on the toilet seat, random hairs stuck on shower walls upon arrival, sticky spots on the floor, bathtub appeared stained and dirty and dripped the entire time.
