Don't Stay Here

The hotel itself was a typical hotel. Front desk people were great upon check in. However, we will never stay at this hotel again! We went down for breakfast and the cream cheese for the bagels was left on the counter and got warm. We asked for cold ones and the lady literally started yelling at us so we simply left. I have never been treated so poorly in my whole life! Then, we went to say something at the front desk and the guy there obviously didn't care at all and told us to go online and fill out a review.

Nice in the rooms… tired looking outside.

Lobby and halls are a bit old and tired. BUT the rooms are clean and renovated. Good AC. Clean linens. Clean bathroom. Fridge. Comfy beds. ( We didn’t eat the free breakfast but it looked fine) Very expensive due to location and Friday night.
