Had a blanket with dried blood all over as soon as you turn it down. Took off bed and slept without it. Blanket needed to be checked better than just reusing without washing them. Room 728. Need another trash can besides the only one in bathroom. Should have taken a picture but it was too disgusting to look at. Really sicken.

Could've Been Better

My stay was just ok. The bedding was dirty and had stains on the sheets and the bathroom was not cleaned. I had forgotten some hygiene products but knew from past experiences that this establishment normally has these items available for their guest. When I went to shower there was no soap in the dispenser at all. There was a left over piece of bar soap and hair from the previous guest and the shower had visibly not been cleaned. There was also hair embedded into the towels that were stocked in the room initially. It took 3 attempts to try and get ahold of the front desk, in which one of my members had to physically walk down and ask them if we could have more towels delivered to the room. When she went to the front desk one of the employees was just chatting with another employee. I stayed a total of 3 nights and no one ever came up to try and clean the room in the midst of our stay. We also had some drinks at the bar but when we tried to order food we were told that the cook was not scheduled to come in until later. I believe the menu indicated that the serving time would be between 4pm and close. We werent able to order food until 5:30. My guest and I are typically just go with the flow and try to make the best of things, so to keep things cordial we didnt want to complain. I thought it would be better to do so here on behalf of them and myself.
