It was ok

When I checked in the gentleman that helped me was great. He deserves a raise for his service. The house keeping staff was awful. I asked for trash to be taken out and she did not sweep the floor or give towels or a blanket for the extra bed. And the shower has no pressure. Outside of that it was a great stay

Don’t do it

The heater did not work. I told the front desk as soon as I arrived but they said it’s only one night you’re here for. Even though the parking lot was empty they did not give me a different room. I would not stay here again the room had a nasty smell I had to buy candles to cover up the smell.

Infested with roaches

BUGS! Roaches and spiders in every room/bathroom/kitchen and sitting area. I had asked why someone came in my room while I was away on business and the desk responded via text message “ I did not know about that you can call in the morning. Morning guy will check and help you” and when I asked the morning guy, they didn’t know either. This went on for 2days.
