Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The property was not cleaned or well maintained. Signs were taped up asking guests to bring their dirty towels to the front desk. The gym was in disrepair, tv not working, and clear signs it had not been cleaned including half eaten pizza sitting on top of the weight machine. The halls and lobby smelled of pot and the youth football team staying was not required to observe quiet hours. Overall it appears poorly managed and we would not choose to return for another stay.
