I thought we would book and just have a place to stay in between going to the park-but I didn’t feel comfortable doing that. The room was beyond dirty-the front desk person offered another room-but why wasn’t that an option when I first checked in? I told him I didn’t feel safe-he said if anything happened he would just call the cops….no thanks-I forfeited the 1 night cancellation and booked another place.

My experience at this hotel was disappointing. The room had a strong smell of cigarette smoke from the moment I entered, which was very uncomfortable. This really affected my stay, as I expected a clean and pleasant room.

The most important part of this room is it was economical and clean. Cleanliness is important to me. Breakfast wasn't fancy but had refrigerated sandwiches to heat up in microwave. Yogurt fruit and bagels also. Thank you
