Stay somewhere else

The whole place is run down and dark. It’s one of the worst places I’ve stayed. Not well maintained. Everything in disrepair The arrangement of our suite made no sense. Very few outlets in inconvenient places, same for lights. We had to unplug the clock to charge our phone by the bed. The only other accessible outlet was in an alcove with the couch. The couch faced a sink and cabinet in terrible condition. It looked like an area for mixing drinks in a seedy motel. The curtains were broken. There were 2 air conditioners and 1 didn’t work so the room was too warm. I found it disturbing there were cameras everywhere and at check in you can see the monitor and view of every camera. The room was very clean but because it looked so run down (the room and the whole place) I felt really uncomfortable . The ratings I saw when I booked the place (7 of 10) did not match my experience. It was disappointing.

Not my greatest stay. Room was clean, but the property was very used. Everything was old. I got a room at the airport for $30 less on my return through town and it was 10 times the value.

The staff is very friendly but otherwise I would avoid this property- the room smelled like dog, which would have been fine, it is a pet friendly hotel, what was NOT fine was the large patches of black mold in the bathroom.This place triggered my asthma so bad that I ended up having to go to the ER before I could continue my trip.

This property is not good at all, there was active construction in the property and elevator was not working. This should have been told in advance while booking by expedia. Room was clean but lobby, hallway and stairs were just filthy. Hotel was not in good location also, seemed unsafe. People were having parties in parking lot in the evening every day. Breakfast buffet was so wasteful, for example each bread toast was double wrapped in cling wrap. Also AC was so noisy. Only thing decent was size of the room and overall cleanliness of the room was not bad, could be better but rooms were not terrible.

I liked that it was a short distance to downtown. It was a nicely kept, clean facility. The outside pool area was really nice. There could have been more options on the breakfast buffet. They could at least switch it up a bit rather than having the same thing every day. Other than that it was definetly worth the money and I'd stay there again.

The elevator has been out now for over 3 1/2 weeks. I have been staying here on a weekly basis since the beginning of May I had individual knock on my door at 6:30 in the morning that was not a hotel guest. The customer service I can say has been great and accommodating

Very comfortable beds, nice hot breakfast with real orange juice. Staff very helpful. Condition was the only downside - elevator out of service the entire weekend, stairwells were filthy, many spots on the ceiling of our room had pieces of stipple finish material peeling off. As with most mid-range hotels here in the USA these days, it's in need of some TLC, but I would stay again.
