I had an extended flight delay so it was midnight when I arrived at the hotel. Then the fire alarm went off at 5am. Something was burning in the kitchen…. I had to call the desk and they shared they shut off the alarm. The little rest I attempted to get was no longer an option.

This is by far one of the worsts if not the worst hotel we’ve stayed ever!!! Room was extremely dirty, the shower had mold on the ceiling, the shower walls were splattered with yellow stains, the toilet was beyond nasty. The bedspreads had stains and the room smelled extremely musty. Room 305 to be exact. No management available, the bar has closing hours posted of 10pm and it was closed at 9:20 when we arrived.No regard for customers whatsoever and the premises are pretty undesirable. The hotel has lots of wasted potemtial and it is very poorly managed!

The property is nice and Quiet. The issue is walking around might be unsafe pass the drug store because they had 8 shooting this year. What's left of the township is all closed on the weekends except one restaurant the Critics Choice and the hotels restaurant.

Large trash bags with pizza boxes in the hall next to elevator for two days, trash in the room, dusty, dusty, dusty. Mirror/bathroom light very dim, mirror with severe peeling. Front desk clerk at check in really should find another job not in the service industry

So this being right in the middle of the downtown area it does have a business feel to it. Everything was well up to date. Bed was super comfy with very nice linens. I think they had a restaurant inside but we didn’t get a chance to check it out as we were just passing through and stopped for a nights rest.

The hotel overall was great, however, the breakfast was horrible! They charge $12.95 for what you would get free at other hotels. The charge would have been fine if the food was edible. Also, the ONLY ice machine was on the 7th floor. Very inconvenient!!
