Our room smelled so bad like Indian curry food. It was infused in everything because if we put our clothes on a chair or bed they smelled like the awful food smell! My 3 kids complained the whole time. We were told there were no other rooms to get moved to. It was terrible. Very run down hotel in need of renovation and they need to deep clean smelly rooms

Although the hotel is smoke free- the first room we had smelled so badly of cigarettes we had to request a new room. The other room wa a better but shower was dingy, bedding/ blankets were meh & the overall look of the place was not worth the almost $400 for one night. There was also a wedding party staying there & they were loud at all hours & we stayed to get up @ 4am for the marathon. Overall way too expensive for the room & atmosphere.
