DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!!!!!! I booked this hotel and we had to switch rooms cause the air conditioning wasn't working in the first room they put us in. Halfway into our stay, we woke up to find out that the electricity and water went out in the middle of our stay and we were forced to check out early. The hotel now refuses to process our refund after they promised to do so. DO. NOT. STAY. HERE

The Kingdom of Adequate

Been here a few times, it is good enough. It is usually quiet and functional. The breakfast works, the rooms are fine, etc etc. For the price I'm pretty happy with it. The facility is older, and they are doing what they can. Limited capabilities, wear and tear, and the elevators are not entirely reliable.

Worst hotel night

This was the worst customer service I have ever experienced. The hotel lost all power the weekend before and was closed down. We drove 45 minutes out of the way and HOTELS.com had no communication with us . We had to drive back toward Philadelphia and at the last minute book another hotel which was substandard. I feel like a refund or free stay would be appropriate for compensation of the time wasted.

We got to the hotel, there was no electricity. We never got the information regarding power outage. Once at the hotel, front desk people did not provide us with any accommodation nor compensation. Overall, a very disappointing and unprofessional service.

Decoration and bedrooms are nice, but in our bedroom the fridge was not working. We asked many times to different employees about the problem, only in the Night they changed it. An accident happened in the basement pipes. Flooding and shut down for whole day. No breakfast and customers have to move to another hotel. The manager was gentle and reimburse the money. Also and help looking for new accommodations. Accidents happen, but the hotel was not in a good shape. No emergency lights in hallways and stars.
