We were not informed of renovations, we walked into a horrible unsafe mess. We have photos and videos we will be emailing...but the customer service was horrible, even the workers working on renovations were so incredibly UNKIND and rude. We left from our vacation early because it was so uncomfortable and loud. We get ONE vacation a year from our 3 young kids and this one was the worst experience we ever had. We plan to email photos and videos of our broken elevators, disgusting unsafe and dangerous halls, even the loud noises which made for sleepless nights and mornings. We've already gotten in touch with several people and plan to go higher up for a refund for this "vacation" that was pure hell for this couple from far out of town.

Terrible experience

This was probably one of the worse experiences I’ve ever had staying at a hotel. The hotel was under construction from the hours of 8:30am-4pm every single day. I understand that hotels need to be worked on and updated but there should have been some type of communication about the state of this hotel before I booked and paid for it. I honestly would not have stayed here knowing that I would have been woken up every day at 8:30am to banging and chainsaws going on the floor below and above the floor we stayed on. Very disappointed in our stay here.

We were not informed the property was undergoing a renovation. The lobby was nonexistent, just a check-in desk. The elevators, also looked like a construction zone. The construction noise began at 8am and continued all day. Our room had not yet been renovated, and although it was clean, it was old. Water pressure in the shower was very low, window curtains had mold. BUT, the staff was GREAT! Always smiling, professional, and helpful to do what they could to help us.

They were under renovation, it felt like all the fumes they produced felt like I hailed, constant smell of cigarettes and marijuana on our floor. Yes I understand they were renovating but we were never made aware of this at the time of booking which is something that should have been known. Lastly when on vacation this is the last thing you wanna deal with, aswell as the breakfeast portion, it was a grab and go from a small table. I wouldn’t recommend for a while until the big renovation is complete. The room was the only okay thing but I wouldn’t be proud to say it was adequate but for the price I guess you get what you deserve.

Fine stay

We stayed for 2n. The hotel is under renovation( not aware fr booking). No lobby they have mini reception tucked in the corner. I booked a standard 2 queen bed room. The room has tv, microwave, refrigerator & mini kuerig(that we don't use it, not sure if it's been cleaned). The bed was firm & comfy beddings were cleaned. Bathroom not enough space to put your toiletries not even a towel rack. The shower has no pressure because it doesn't close from faucet to shower. No hot breakfast but "only to go" because no eating area They have outdoor pool if the weather was permitted. The fitness room not available they use as a storage.

Horrible

This hotel is disgusting. My daughter found hair in her bed and a bandaid in the sheets. When I went to ask for new sheets front desk said she didn’t know if she had access to them as they were renovating the hotel. Front desk person one of the nights had her 3 children at work with her sitting at the front desk. Loud people next to us. Mold in shower. No where to park.
