They’re remodeling or renovating but we had no warning. Got to our floor to come into a construction zone with paint all over the carpets, the baseboards were all removed, old shelves stacked in the corner by the elevator. It was shocking. Thankfully the room wasn’t in a renovation state, but the walls are paper thin so we could hear every time the neighbor turned on their TV.

The hallways and rooms had run down and dirty rugs. The room smelled like mold. The maids cleaned all the sheets, towels and surfaces well. The hotel is just not maintained and really smelled bad within the hallways and rooms because of mold I believe. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The breakfast was not just a continental breakfast but a full breakfast were there was a wide variety of food from waffles you could make, hard boiled eggs, cereal, bagels, fruit, muffins etc. and it was well stocked. It was the best part of the entire stay. I would not stay at this hotel again. The price was way to high and the smell of mold and extremely dirty rugs everywhere was unpleasant.

They suggested turning it off and on but that did not work. Beeping noise 24/7. Expired food items in vending machine. Staff confirmed and said it's best to go to WaWa.

The room and bath were dirty. Dead bugs on the counter. Within 12 hours the tub and and toilet were clogged. There was no working men’s room in the hotel. When we called the front desk they said they would send someone right up. We then called back they said he was on his way. We called again and they said they can’t find the maintenance man. He eventually came to fix the toilet. There was also no hot water during our stay. We told the front staff. They said they hadn’t heard that. No one came to clean the room while we stayed either.

The hotel Was fine for a brief stay. I wouldn’t make a family vacation out of it though. The hotel itself is old and dated and needs maintenance. Actually I saw it under renovation while I was there which is a good thing but the day I check in, for a solid hour from 330pm to 430 pm they’re was drilling or sawing near or above my room and I had to leave for awhile. Unfortunately there’s nothing you can do about that
