William

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It was terrible. They gave me room 329 and I was promised to view and when I opened up the curtain the entire window was completely covered by a tree and I couldn't look out and see. Next, the bolts that hold the toilet down were broken and I almost fell over in the toilet and a whole toilet almost fell over. I was assigned another room and I found that there was no USB ports to charge my appliances. The door didn't shut by itself. They closed the pool on me and I was very disappointed.

Well located/priced but 20 years behind the times.

A very dated hotel. It looks good from the outside but ... Bedside lamps were loose and difficult to keep on. Shower tile needs attention. The oh so dated cottage cheese ceiling was stained a brownish color around the perimeter where it meets the walls. Toilets are way too low to be comfortable. Furniture has seen better days. The elevator is too small to use the luggage carts comfortably. Basically, the property needs interior refreshing. Scrambled eggs and bacon/sausage would improve the carb and fruit breakfast fare immensely.
