The bathroom was not super clean. There was hair left in the bathtub, shower head cord and toilet area. The shower was awful. The showerhead was so old that it wasn't working well. The tub was not draining well at all, so I had to shower in the puddle.

Not great and they double charge

The bathroom was dirty and they need to replace the stained bathtub. When you check in they give you this page that has been photocopied a zillion time talking about COVID and how they have reduced all their services. It’s 2025, don’t blame covid, you just don’t offer daily housekeeping or happy hour anymore. The hotel double charged me for taxes and fees even when I had prepaid for the room through Hotels.com. Now I have to deal with disputing that although they make you sign something that says their rates don’t include taxes and fees. So it seems this is a regular occurrence. Why do guests get charged twice??? I have stayed there twice. Didn’t love it either time. But the breakfast is very good and the breakfast ladies are great.
