Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The shower was lukewarm at best. There were no towels in the room when we checked in. Everything about the hotel was old, dirty and tired. Poor maintenance. I tried to call them about something I thought I had forgotten in the room and there was a busy signal forever. Fortunately I found the item, but there is no excuse for leaving the phone off the hook

Pictures in Expedia make it look nice. Total opposite of what’s in photos. Floors, walls, and furniture are dirty. No towels in room, no hot water during shower, power in room went out overnight so could not use my CPAP to sleep. Front desk person was friendly is only positive.

A version of a prison visit...

I knew that the stay would be less than ideal, but I had no idea that I would be checking into a hotel that had patched walls in the room, a phone whose cord was cut, and a required visit to the front desk to get the TV operable. The final straw was the lack of towels in the bathroom.

Staff member at the desk was nice and friendly. Lots of areas need repair. There was no towel in my room. The water never got beyond slightly warm in the shower. The toilet wouldn't flush correctly. There weren't any plugs near the bed.
