We were sent to three rooms before we found one that was made up. But even in that room, there were cracker crumbs on the bedspread. Both the shower and the sink faucets were loose and wiggled when you used them. The breakfast room attendant had to be told there was a shortage of food. He later was wandering around while tables were unwashed and trash was on the floor.

Nice place for the low price

Room was spacious, lobby was very nice, continental breakfast was nice given the low price of the hotel. However we can hear people in next room talking on phone like he was in our room!!! Bathtub faucet dripping, tub drain very slow/clogged, windows very dirty.

Very clean! Friendly and welcoming at reception, even when we rolled in just before midnight from other travel delays. Complimentary breakfast was minimal, but there was a waffle maker and coffee. The outside is less than impressive, but it worked for a quick night's rest.

Terrible customer service, will not return deposit

My deposit was not returned, and still has not been returned. I've contacted them through hotels.com and personally, and I get the same response. They tell me the deposit takes 3-5 days to be refunded but the pending charge has been finalized and processed, meaning they KEPT my deposit instead of returning it. I'm still waiting....
