The room ok. The office kelp bringing up 3rd party checkin, then we tried to extent our stay and hear comes that 3rd party thing again. To extent our stay it was almost double what our stay was because of the 3rd party. Wish we had stayed elsewhere. Had it not been for 3rd party we would have not came. Quality inn made it possible for us to go places I've had it with you. We stay elsewhere from now on. Ive never new it be polite for the office workers to complain about there bookings.

One night stay. Not a fan of the $5 parking fee, which was new this trip. I'd rather pay in the room total, not an added fee.Staff was helpful.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our bathroom had black around the tub. Dogs were in the room next door and barked on and off day and night. Very disturbing. Breakfast very limited and during breakfast the morning clearly came and got in the way so we could not get to the waffle maker. Outside of our room the sidewalk and driveway always had dirty looking water from the laundry and they made use pay $10.00 a day parking which was a ripoff. Pets should have to be on the backside of the hotel away from paying customers that do not have pets. I think we were totally overcharged for the room and parking we were charged and the service and enjoyment we received.
Spilled some water and this is how dirty the floor was
My socks after walking from the side of the bed to the bathroom.    Floors were dirty
