Our hotel room was basically falling apart. The blinds to our room were broken, art work on walls were falling apart, the table in the entry was also hanging on for dear life. The mirror in the bathroom was broke all around the edges. Toilet was nasty & everything was very outdated. Overall the service was fine. Thankfully the bed was clean but had I known I would’ve booked somewhere else. Photos on the website were deceiving.

Terrible customer service

I went to check in and they told me the room I reserved on hotel.com was sold out so they tried to put me in a different room that didn’t meet our needs and would have been cheaper than the one I paid for. One lady told me the rooms were all booked and there was nothing she could do. In speaking to a manager they were able to get me in the original room I booked but I never received the items for the premium booking snacks/ drinks. Even though I called multiple times and they kept saying they would send it up.
