This hotel was not good at all. As soon as we drove in, property looked dirty, the building looked very old. When we walked in the lobby, smell was horrible even at 11:00pm. TV in the room didn’t work. There were old smelly blankets, horrible beds and pillows. The curtains looked very old as well. All lamps were bright, some didn’t have light bulbs. The carpet in general smelled and was old. Not good hotel at all.

Good place difficult stay

Please include meat with breakfast. We had trouble with the air condition that was preset to 60 and then when I called he said no it has to be on 70 or it won’t work but you didn’t have that only instructions or any instruction for the AC so we were hot that night and the night staff was short and direct And seem like he was bothered that I asked him any questions. Work on your friendliness that is all.
