Terrible

I had to change my room three times.. I felt like the hotel could’ve gave me a discount or did something for me, but they didn’t. The first room, my student the bathroom was dirty had a dirty towel there hair the second bathroom the sink something came up. It was like black Tarry the third room was clean. and comfortable. The only problem was the TV didn’t want to turn on, but I figure it out cause they don’t tell you that you need to leave a switch on for the TV to stay on and I feel like they should have that do not turn off the switch, but they didn’t.. I stood at this whole hotel two times already and I never had a problem until this time

Pictures posted are not even close to what they are in person. Old, outdated, I ordered a upgraded room and there was no microwave or fridge as posted, had to ask for them to be delivered and was told not all upgraded rooms have them and they were delivered on day 2. Trash outside, very noisy people, thin walls, crickety beds...water pressure was great, a/c worked but not very good. I guess that what you get for $347/ 3 days!
