Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room: lumpy, small pillows, worn carpet, desk chair with upholstery peeling off, dresser and chairs with paint rubbed off on the edges. The carpet was so dirty that my feet were black after walking barefoot on it for a vety short amount of time. Dish Network only (limited options). Breakfast very limited. Coffee dispenser doesn't dispense all the drink options. Front desk doesn't answer the phone. Staff brusque and primarily uncommunicative. It is quiet, but only because of low vacancy. I could hear coughing through the walks.

Coffee. Pretty much nothing else. One morning…one plane bagel in plastic wrap. Oh and a jar full of raisin brand. Only opened at 7am (start time) one time during my stay. Otherwise at least 30 minutes past open time. Ask front desk about breakfast issues…told it wasn’t their responsibility. Someone else takes care of it.

Odd behavior from some staff members. Cigarette on my balcony for days. Updated room was nice however someone left nylons in my room and woman was wondering why I would feel uneasy in corner room near street. Wanted to upgrade it found it challenging to see a king with a kitchen. Although they made me wait hours to see a room I felt unwelcome to ask for upgrade. The single king with shower is a decent room but needs curtains. One day no breakfast available at 9 am.. they need to train older man to be more customer service friendly Convenient bus stop near by . Pillows are uncomfortable but shower was nice. Dish network tv
