Hotel was ok, on par for price of stay

Just stayed one night, passing through on way home from vacation. Got in around 8pm and most eateries nearby were closed so had to drive about 15 to eat. Check in was fast and friendly. Parked in parking garage attached to hotel. Room decor was dated and kinda musty. TV was old and had probably the dirtiest remote ive ever seen. Room price was cheap so i feel hotel was par for what we paid. Mainly chose due to close location of distillery.

The elevator to parking garage was out of service. We had to change rooms due to musty smell. The pool was out of service. There was no bar and few options for dining.

Saddest hotel I have been to in awhile. The poor employees were working really hard and had big smiles. But they had very little to work with. There is a lovely parking lot. The staff was very kind. But this hotel had lots of damage and no pool and a non functioning workout room and no restaurant / bar and a sad breakfast. But the workers did try to make it nice I thought.

The hotel was so nice on the outside that we had high hopes. But the room smelled like urine so bad we could barely breathe, the beds were damp as well. The whole room felt dingy. We got there in the middle of the night after driving 12 hrs that we decided we would just deal with it but it was a struggle. There was a pool but we didn’t see it. There was a water feature in the lobby that was great! The parking was quite the walk to the hotel if you have a lot of stuff. Breakfast was just okay. The one staff member we came in contact with when we checked in was very nice!

Staff were extremely friendly. They were the only positive thing about this place. The lobby, elevators and room were filthy. There was mold on the walls, window and in the bathroom. The bedding wasn’t clean. Staff told me that management wouldn’t allow them to provide me with clean bedding. The carpet was covered in stains. There was a two inch gap under the room door with light shining in from the hallway. I just slept in my car because they wouldn’t issue a refund. DO NOT STAY HERE

Check in was swift and they were kind to accommodate a last minute dog! The rooms are spacious and the bed is very comfortable. Road noise is noticeable during peak traffic times. The parking is not adjacent to the hotel . You park in a garage and take an elevator down , walk a short way, cross a non busy street and public transportation area, then into the hotel and elevator to your room . All of it is covered . I recently had knee replacement surgery and the walking was a bit of an issue . You can park right in from to load and unload . Other than breakfast, there is no food in the hotel . Shower has HOT water which is nice . One bedside lamp didn’t work. Upon check in towels were still hanging behind the bathroom door from previous guests. There isn’t daily housekeeping just fyi WiFi is very fast . Fridge in room . No microwave . Nice room for the price

My room was very spacious with the upgrade for v. I p, however, when I crawled into the bed to take a nap, it looked like someone had just peed in it, as it was still wet. I was able to move across the hall. However, I felt that something more should have been done.

Gross. Check in was extremely slow. Staff member ran my credit card incorrectly then told me there was fraud on my credit card. No perks offered. Outdated. Room was disgusting with wet carpet and stinky sheets. Some breakfast items looked unsafe to eat.
