Decent property clean and quiet (next to McDonalds and Holiday Inn). The bathtub and the toilet both had a slight brown ring which tells me, staff is not cleaning the tub and toilets. Cleaning bathtub and toilet takes five minutes

The stay was okay, but it was annoying to have to keep going to the front desk to have my key card fixed multiple times. Especially when parking is in the rear of the building. I had to walk all the way around the building to get back in. Then was locked out of my room twice. Breakfast was okay. The waffles was the highlight.

The room was dirty. I had to kill 2 bugs when I closed the curtains. The tub was dusty. The tub drain was not working. The next morning the water was still in the tub and you could see all the dust floating in the tub. Maintenance came right away to resolve the issue. There was trash left in the room under the desk. I stayed 3 nights and my room was serviced once, but they didn’t take the trash out. This used to be my favorite place to stay. The food is always amazing here.
