Once we complained about the mold and mildew they accused us of smoking in our room. Which was bogus. I simply wanted attention brought to the mold.

The room was clean. The bathroom needed a little touching up in the floor, and baseboard area. The shower control needed replacing. Also, no coffee maker in the room. At this time, there was no ice machine, but the clerk did get me some. The staff was friendly, and helpful. Particularly the lady working the afternoon shift. The continental breakfast was just okay.

I arrived about 12:00am. Other than the 3 dead bugs on the floor my bed was clean. I also noticed no stains on the bedding. The heat/air unit ran quite quietly. Occasionally I’ll stay at a place where the cycling on wakes me because the units are noisy. This wasn’t the case. If you need a hair dryer. Pack it if you stay here. One wasn’t available in the room. I saw no bucket to get ice or an in room coffee maker. Safety was a bit of a concern . The chain was literally held on by 1 screw that I could easily with my finger unscrew it. But I wedged a chair in between the door and closet to keep it blocked. I arrived downstairs at 8:15 am. There was a good selection to eat. Biscuits and gravy 3 types of cereal Scrambled Eggs Sausage links French toast sticks Fresh fruit Everything was cold so I ate cereal and some sausage links. Cereal was fresh and the sausage links even cold were quite tasty. I checked out by 9am. I was there a total of 9 hrs. It is worth a revisit. But I’d ask for a different room where the chain wasn’t broken.
