The property was very far off the highway. They were very hard to book online but that might have been Expedia issues. They sold our room but luckily they had someone else not show up.

I was very disappointed staying here because I left my prescription glasses and they were not turned in by housekeeping. Obviously its my fault for leaving them but its frustrating that they could have been returned had housekeeping turned them in. I called many times to see if it had been recovered and it was never treated as a priority or as if they cared. If it hadn't been for that, I would have given it 5 stars.

Checked in around 630pm and was told the room i reserved was no longer available. Was offered a lesser room which i had no choice but to accept. Was given keycards to the room. Entered the room which was filthy, literally. Overflowing garbage, unmaid beds, linens on the ground. Made the front desk aware and was given keycards to another room. Entered that room. Room was also filthy. Overflowing garbage and beds weren't made. Another trip to the front desk. Obviously frustrated at this point, i was given keycards to yet another room. This time on a different floor. This room finally appeared clean, but had no linens/towels in the bathroom and no remote for the TV. Terrible experience. No management. Over all terrible hotel!
