Disliked: Amenities
I got to the property and checked in okay. I got to the room and there was paint all over the floors. I let the staff know. They asked to move me but I declined. I drove all night and did not want to move my stuff again. I woke in the morning to find that there was attempted charges by the hotel for $57+ on two separate occasions that occurred the morning of checkout. When I asked about it, first they didn’t know. When I showed the transaction, she remembered…. Then said it was an error that she fixed. Again, I don’t have the energy to argue with people at my age. I just left.

Like the location, poor staff, poor communication regarding payment, book this hotel, was not aware of pet fee it did not say anything when i book my rooms, the rooms was not completely clean hair on the night stands, barhroom sink was dirt shower was half clean and walls were dirty. I would not stay at this location ever again. For this hotel to be only 7 years old the up keeping is very poorly and housekeepers are very lazy including the front desk staff and asking a question they act as i was bothering them because they didn’t want to work. Ill give this entire hotel and staff a three out of ten.
