Needs improvement but okay in an emergency
I wasn't happy when I walked in and saw a food container in the trash and crumbs on the chair at the table. The bathtub creaked so I only took one shower there. I wasn't happy so I left a day early. I attempted to talk to someone when I left but there was not one at the counter and no one responded when I hit the buzzer. They did call when I was on the road and just explained that I left a day early- I couldn't talk then. I did not find the staff friendly- not rude- just not friendly. They did not tell me of the amenities when I got there. Just seemed only concern with making the sure the payment was completed. For the price I thought there might be a frig or at least a microwave, but there were none. The good thing was there was no deposit.

There was no microwave in the room which was not expected! I booked this hotel because we looked for one with a breakfast included and was VERY disappointed! The biscuits were hard as a brick and the gravy was COLD! Only a few slices of bread and a couple bagels available for all guests, a few hard boiled eggs and yogurt. No decent options. Nothing appealing so the second day ate elsewhere which is what we wanted to avoid. Also had a sign posted to not be able to bring food to your room. NEVER ran into this before! It would have been nice to take something back to our room for when we finished getting ready. Won’t be back.

Worst stay in a hotel.
Booked a suite with jacuzzi tub. The blinds in the room with the jacuzzi were broken. The heater/air conditioner was as loud as a bulldozer, the blanket on the bed was no thicker than two sheets together. Went down for their complimentary breakfast at 7:40am and every thing was gone. Breakfast is served from 6-9am. When I spoke to the front desk clerk about these issues. He acted like I was bothering him. No apology at all

Would never stay here again, even if you paid me. I travel A LOT and never really have issues at hotels. This one has been the worst. The beds are extremely hard. There was an extremely bright outdoor light right outside our window and showed through the curtains all night. TV and fridge did not work. Stayed for 5 days and they never had room service come. There’s a sign taped to the front desk that says they don’t come unless you’re there longer than 2 nights but they never did. We had to track down staff multiple times to ask for toilet paper and towels. Staff at front desk was very rude. I’ve had better experiences at cheaper hotels than this.
