I appreciated the check-in process because the front desk clerk was very friendly and pleasant. Upon arrival to the room it was very neat and the bathroom even had little flowers made out of the toilet paper and Kleenex. I can say this is one property that was a delight to have booked.

The overnight desk clerk on 05/04 was so friendly and helpful. The young lady with clear rimmed glasses at the desk the morning of 05/07 was SO RUDE to my husband! He politely asked her what time breakfast ended and she snapped back with, “ 9:30! Like it says right there!”and pointed to the sign behind him. Then laughed at him! It was completely unnecessary and unprofessional! The hotel itself is pretty rundown and our room had cracks and water stains everywhere. Also, you can hear EVERYTHING that happens in the hall from your room. I would definitely consider a different hotel!
