The person that checked me in was so rude! She ignored me while I was waiting in line until I said “hi, I am here to check in”. Then she acted annoyed, snatching my driver’s license and credit card out of my hands! The property must be poorly built because I stayed on the 3rd floor and was kept awake by the person above me. I couldn’t call the front desk because the phone in the room did not connect to the front desk and at 2am I didn’t have the phone number!

Disappointed.

This hotel is the definition of "not my problem". The only person I found doing their job well was the lovely woman who made sure everyone paid for the mediocre breakfast. The sink was half enameled, there was paint down the walls in the bathroom, the shower curtain was damaged. I attempted to change rooms to be faced with still damaged shower curtains and mold around the tub. There is no taking pride in this location. And when confronted with the problem it was essentially a shrug. Their customer service is not set up to have repeat customers. I have been an IGH member for decades- and I am considering to change loyalty for myself and staff based on this location.
