Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Mold in every room especially above the shower. Old, dated and not clean at all. Would NEVER stay here. And they refuse to give us our money for 4 day stay when we didn't even stay 10 minutes because my husbands immediately started having breathing issues. He has a compromised immune system. Note the low lighting in the hotel so you can't see the filth and the elevator stopped working so we had to walk back down the stairs with all our stuff. Did not even have the correct room available upon arrival but we were fine with that. Just can't sleep for 4 days in disgusting conditions.Thanks but no thanks.

The room wasn’t clean. Stained mattress covers, no hot water in the shower, pop bottles behind the night stand, phone didn’t work to cal the front desk, wifi didn’t work. When I went to speak to the staff at the front desk he was very dismissive of the issues and said he doesn’t know what’s wrong with my room it’s a my room issue and he would get the phone looked at in the morning after we checked out.
