The clerk that checked us in that evening around 6:30 was phenomenal! Friendly, helpful, and informative! The sweet lady running breakfast the next morning was also just the absolute best! Helped with our needs and did it with the sweetest smile! However, housekeeping and the woman running the front desk clerk Saturday morning were not helpful nor polite. Breakfast was great and the location was what we needed but I don't believe this hotel lived up to the 8.4/10 rating posted on Hotels.com. It worked in a pinch but next time we will spend the additional $50 and stay at the Hampton Inn in the same area.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We had to stay at this dump out of sheer desperation. It’s filthy, very clear they didn’t clean it after the previous guests checked out, staff is rude and won’t answer the phone, and our room didn’t have any towels nor soap and shampoo. For $320/night, it was a terrible experience. Avoid big time; in fact any hotel/motel that’s run by Singh Enterprises - these guys set the bar very low for hospitality.

Neither of two rooms given to us ay check in had been made from the night before. Returned to the front desk, running into cockroaches in the main hallway, and got 2 new rooms. The lady checking us out the next morning was curt and not very good at realizing that she is in the _service_ industry. I have yet to receive my $50 deposit for incidentals after 10 days.
