If you don't like your job, get another job. I've stayed here 4 times and never again. It's always the same crabby lady, grumbling and fumbling to check you in...this time, she threw me a guilt trip about how I interrupted her supper. Really? Most people check in between 4 and 7. It was 5 pm. I'm just trying to check into my room so I can go to dinner with my son and his family. After a 600 mile trip from Texas, I don't need a crabby lady throwing a guilt trip. Next time, I'll pay a few bucks more and stay elsewhere.

For the entire time I was there my room wasn’t clean at all. The cleaning lady knocked on my door when I left she never cleaned my room. That’s why I gave a bad review.

I reserved a non-smoking room well in advance… got there to check in, and the only thing they had was a smoking room. This room was absolutely disgusting, was dirty, smelled bad of course, and the lady at the front counter couldn't give two craps about it. I couldn't get the air system to work properly and the ceiling fan didn't work ...so I spent the night in a nasty smelling room with no air circulation.

Gross!

The room was dirty. There were nail clippings left beside the bed, the sheets seemed like they were not clean, and there was hair in the shower floor.
