The room was dated with dirty wallpaper and a smell of stale cigarettes. Then for the whole night, the guest next door had his TV on some channel with b&w reruns such as the Twilight Zone and westerns ALL NIGHT LONG!!! I thought that hotels reserved rooms that were separated by an empty one. The bed was ok but I've had better ones in a Holiday Inn. Breakfast was expected and nice. TY.

It was a clean hotel and they were very accommodating to us. The breakfast was delicious. Only thing is, the plugs in the room have not been converted to usb or type C plugs. We had to go buy boxes to charge our devices. Other than that, great stay,

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
First of all, we waited at the check in desk for almost 20 minutes to check in and no staff was anywhere in site. Then we get checked in and go to our room and the toilet was broken. I called the front desk and someone came up to look at it after over a half hour. Then, someone called my room at almost 11pm to ask if my toilet was working still and woke up both of my sleeping children who had to be up by 6am. Lastly, nowhere on Expedia stated the pool was under construction so I paid extra for a hotel room because of a pool instead of choosing one of the cheaper hotels in the area and the pool wasn’t even open.

Very unprofessional. Reserved for 2 people but only 1 coffee cup. I went to the desk to ask for more and the polite staff had a tough time finding one. Staff were nice but the room was awful. Water stained ceiling, mold in shower, peeling wallpaper and wallpaper paste that was never wiped off when installed. Only 1 elevator worked. Was not notified when booking or in advance of pool and hot tub closure. Paid a lot of money for a very poorly managed hotel.

The place was falling apart: loose and broken tiles in our bathroom, peeling ceiling, broken and very old caulking in the shower, dented microwave, one working elevator, and a staff that was honestly, a buzzkill. The lobby was clean and updated but everything else was not. I would not book here again.

The bathroom floor was dirty, the furniture is well worn. The TV did not work in room, nor did the thermostat. The breakfast was good in the morning, but disappointed with room. Also we were not told till check-in that the pool and hot tub were down.

Nice location, friendly service. But….the television situation is a mess. 4 trips to the front desk, very complicated system to operate the tv. Channel buttons don’t work, on purpose. You have to type in each number and can’t just scroll around. Also, my shower head dripped the entire time, not an issue until trying to sleep. I’ve stayed here a few times and will stay again, but could use some updates on small things.
