Cheap for a reason

The elevator was creepy. The hallway was extremely hot. The tiles were sticky, the carpet was moist, and there was no soap in the bathroom. There was no shampoo or conditioner either. We ended up driving home because I questioned the cleanliness of the beds.

The only item I didnt like at all was the horrible loud rock music you played in dining and bar area during my trying to eat my food with my fmily and friends in the evening hours.That type of loud ,insane music must be shut off during dining hours..It was not an enjoyable meal I had with that harsh loud music playing...

A fine stay as always.

Our stay was excellent, as it has been the previous several times we’ve been here. The hotel is clean and well-kept, and the town has a number of amenities within a few blocks walk.

One of our rooms was VERY hot when we got there. Its the dead of summer and they had it heating..The toilet did not flush properly. It appeared as if somebody had jumped on one of the beds. The other room we had did not have a properly functioning door. It was OPEN when we got there. Now that is quite concerning. This room was ridiculously cold. The front desk lady had absolutely no clue what she was doing. Everyone needs to learn, yes, but give her more knowledge to work with before putting her there by herself.
