The entire place is VERY old and hasn’t been updated in a long time. Furniture is far from hotel status. Felt like goodwill finds and not good ones. Carpet was filthy and so was the bathroom. Moody, rust and hairs. Totally gross. Stunk like smoke even though signs everywhere say non smoking. We were only there for one night and i was disgusted and i have stayed in sub par hotels and this was beyond that. Parking garage is only onsite parking and good luck if you have an an SUV. Height limit is 6’6” but beware because we scratched the roof of our vehicle which is far less than 6’6”. Spoke to manager that literally says it happens all the time and it has settled since it was built in the 70s they just haven’t “had time” to update the lowest height requirement. Had to put in an insurance claim and will be taking legal action. The only reason i am giving 2 stars is because the manager comped our stay. Never will step foot in that place again!

The only complaint I had was at 830 am housekeeping came into our room while we were asleep. Check out was 11:00am and they argued with me about she has the right to check the room. I said not when we are asleep!!!

The place was very nasty a great lobby, but the room was nasty carpet squares, laying all over stinky greasy kitchenette. The view was fine, but the best person told me that the units were privately owned so apparently nobody controls the quality I give it a one star and that’s being generous the room we are put in. Was that bad
