This was my second time at this hotel. The place was nice and clean, service was good but I started keeping track of the disappointments…the bed was hard and squeaky, the alarm clock did not work, the wake up call did not happen, very minimal outlets available, full size fridge was nice option but loud at night, restaurant was nice with good options but the door was stuck open so it was too cold to stay.

This hotel was dated, run down, and filthy. The shower was full of someone’s long hair and the toilet hadn’t been flushed. The sheets and pillows smelled like body odor. It was staffed entirely by people with tattoos on their faces. The parking lot had no security presence and was populated by homeless people screaming at each other all night. Trust me, go somewhere else. Anywhere else.
