Hand held shower head broken, no stationary head. Requested handicapped bathroom, chair in shower was an outdoor plastic shower chair. There were plenty of bars to grab in the bathroom which was a plus. Beds were on metal bases, that were noisy when moving about, also on wheels which moved, not very safe. We were in an area that seems to be remodeled, which not bad for a 1 night stay. Upon check in the woman at desk looked like we were bothering her @ 8pm, not friendly. However upon check out the older woman who checked us out was very pleasant, smiling. I must say it was a quiet are, until a woman started yelling out profanities to someone in her room I guess. She did stop after complaints, not sure what happened to her.

I made a Reservation for a handicapped room. Upon checkin was told it was not available. The night clerk gave away. I find this very concering, that an employee gave the room away with no regard for my reservation & the needs of a guest. My spouse is a double amputee & it is a necessity to have a handicap room. Employees should have an inservice on sensitive to others needs. Another special bonus there was no hot water for showering. When calling the front desk there was no empathy for the situation. The continental breakfast was very sad. No hot water for a cup of tea, batter for waffle was thin, prepackaged cakes were unacceptable. The whole experience was terrible.

We checked in and the staff was extremely rude. The gentleman was in the back in his phone and it seemed like we were inconveniencing him by checking in. We tried calling 5 times to let them know we were checking in late and never once would they answer the phone. Once to our room our toilet was coming undone from the floor and the toilet seat had a massive crack in it. The thermostat was ripped off of the way and exposed wires were there. The room comes with a blow dryer but it was not working so we I had to leave with wet hair for the day due to them not being able to provide a working on once asking. The manager came to address our concerns an hour later after being told he would be up in 15 minutes. They switched us to another room for our next night and it was in better condition but the bed was extremely hard.
