I’ve never encountered this before but the only thing that was a bit of an issue for me was the amount of water in the toilet tank. It does not seem enough to flush the toilet just the one time. Quite often I had to flush two or three times (even for just the toilet paper) for a full emptying of the bowl.

The hotel is pet friendly. I arrived 45 minutes earlier than check in time and was told that it would be an extra $25. That policy sucks. The room, while clean, looked worn. Especially the carpets. The breakfast did not look fresh or appetizing. We skipped it. All in all, not bad, not great.
