Disappointed in my stay. Manager reached out 2 days in and asked how things were going….I responded, he said how can we improve, I responded…he did not. Stayed 4 nights and housekeeping did not come once, even after requested. Floors in lobby and hallways were very dirty and had not been cleaned over the 5 days I was there. My room was dirty and the air unit did not function properly. The shower was only a trickle of water and the fixtures were coming off the wall. Overall, unimpressed by this property.

This is the grossest hotel. First there was a horrible odor, the rooms do not ave blinds that close just sheer curtains that lets light in and people can see through. The sink in the bathroom did not have hot running water and the rugs and furniture are filthy. The toilet seat is cracked and chipped. The whole place is very worn.

Avoid this hotel. Aside from the main entrance, it was filthy. Despite a quiet weekend, staff refused to empty our trash because we missed a 9 AM deadline—by just an hour. To top it off, our bathtub didn’t drain. Disappointing stay.
