Staff was nice and friendly. I got a non smoking room. And the room smelled like cigarettes! Sheets were stained horribly. The lights above the beds were so dusty. Our clothes and body had the cigarette smell on us. We even showered twice. We went home smelling like an ashtray.

The room we stayed in was on the side were the freeway was and it was so noisy. The room didnt have a fridge, blow dryer or an iron. The air didnt work at first and had to call maintenance but they came fast and fixed it. The room just smelled musty and old. They definitely need to renovate the rooms.

Check in time was 3 PM didn’t arrive till 330. Didn’t have the room available tell us to wait a while proceeded to try to put us in a room that they said somebody else complaint and said it’s stained and it did waited around went out to eat several hours waste of time didn’t get checked in until 7:30 PM. They are all over the place may have just been a bad weekend for them. They said they were short staffed, but that’s not my concern. It was a bad experience.
