Overall the stay was ok. On the plus side, a great breakfast, Esther was queen of the omlete station. The negative sides; horrible water pressure in the bathroom, the slope of the bathtub ensured that a lot of water left the tub and c was on the floor. Didn't seem to matter how we tried to keep that from happening. Construction or maintenance going on in the room next to ours starting at 8am, two mornings in a row? Called the front desk and the noise stopped almost immediately. If construction needed to happen a heads up or moving our assigned room would have been great.

The location was nice, and the gentleman who checked me in when I arrived was super friendly and helpful. He said he was new and tbh he was the nicest employee I ran into there. However. The room was not the cleanest. I had a pet friendly room and you could plainly see the room was not swept, there was dirt and dog hair all over. The bathroom was a bit out dated and again, not the cleanest. There was hair and dirt on the floor in there as well. The desk chair had nasty looking stains on it and hair embedded on the seat. But I was tired after driving 13 hrs and just wanted to sleep. The nice man who checked me in had said to check with the front desk in the morning because an early checkout could get me a discount. Which some hotels offer. When I checked out at 5:35 am and mentioned this to the morning clerk he told me he had never heard of such a thing. He said he would ask his manager and get back to me. No one ever called me and he didn’t even include a note for it at least that he followed up on my invoice that I requested an email of.

Since there was no elevator, we had to carry our heavy luggage up the stairs. Inside the room, the refrigerator was so small that we couldn’t freeze water or store food.

For being a “vip” hotel in Expedia, it did not feel as comfortable, updated and special as it should have. Furniture and bedding was average, commodities were barely better than an Inn. Service was average.
