The place was old and outdated! My children were locked out of a room several times due to the keypad not working! The bathroom had what appeared to me look like mold on the ceiling! Couldn’t even stay 24 hours, checked out early! My kids and I were stuck in our hallway not sure if they were going to be able to collect my belongings from that room!

When we arrived, there was no one at the front desk to help with check in (had to call another number and wait 10 min fo someone to show up). When we checked in, we weren’t given a WiFi code. Didn’t realize we needed one until we got to the room. When I tried to call down to the front desk to ask about it, found out that the in room phone didn’t work. Oh, a don’t bother trying to watch football playoffs, cable channel selection is limited.
