We did not have breakfast. We did sit at the bar, which is poorly run. There's hardly any beer and liquor. The "bar tender" couldn't make a Cosmo, no cranberry juice. Overall, this hotel is in seriously need of a makeover. The carpets are worn, and the musty smell is horrible. The furniture is old, worm and very dirty. Sorry for the poor review, just being extremely honest.

Stayed four nights, there is definitely a problem with housekeeping. They did not clean the room on the third day, so there were no towels and garbage was never taken. Fourth day they cleaned the room but did not give me any towels. I wont be staying there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was dark and a bit run down. The room was very dark and the carpet looked very old. Room and door could have used a paint job. A little smelly. Door does not shut automatically - must pull hard to close - very unsafe for a woman alone. Front desk staff friendly, however charged $11.72 for 2 small waters that I was expecting to pay $4. Order food to take back to my room from the bar. Bartender very unfriendly. Food did not appear appetizing. It tasted ok. Few options on the menu.

More fees after booking. While checking in they tack on more fees. You have no choice but to pay it. Environmental fee and a service fee. It’s the first I’ve heard of extra fees after paying for a room on hotels.com. Rooms are musty, looks like they recently did a low budget dress up of vinyl flooring (bubbles on floor) and paint. Halls have a slight odor of wet carpet. Sofa chair in room has no upholstery, just raw foam. For a little more you can get better

My experience checking in was not ideal. My room was at the very end of the hallway, there was no carpet in the room and no phone. You should never give that room to anyone. The lady at the desk gave me another room after I called her and that room was sufficient.
