The man who helped check us in was very friendly, and helpful when room keys were not working. Needed anything just had to ask. Room appeared clean, I know they are still working on updates throughout. Could have used a small trash can in bathroom, but otherwise was a great place to stay for the 1 night we needed.

Bed was ok, pillows weren’t. There was a small coffee pot but no coffee packets, creamer or sugar. The breakfast menu was pretty slim, coffee, muffins, and waffle maker but I couldn’t find any batter. I think there was some fruit on the tables.

No pool like they advertised. They said it was a temporary thing, but we saw that the pool room was a storage room for extra refrigerators and the pool was covered in years of dust. No coffee in the morning and the breakfast was a joke. Our bed sagged to the left.

The staff was excellent however it was the small things. First no towels in the room. We had to ask for them. Second the internet was horrible the first night into the next day-so no TV during that time. Pool wasn't in operation and no fridge in the room. And the air conditioning didn't work. The hotel was clean just a little older and very quiet which was a plus. If we ever decide to visit again we would stay there again.

The room wasn’t very clean. There was hair in the bathtub. The ac did not cool the room and there wasn’t a fan available. Broken window taped up with electrical tape and some of the glass was missing. Pool was not available. The cost of a room it didn’t match the description by any means. Very disappointed and will stay again.

The room had a foul odor. The ac smelled as though the filter hadn't been changed, and although I went to management with our concerns, I felt as though my concerns were overlooked by upper management that was on-site at the time.

The pool was closed, so that was a bummer. The desk person was kind and helpful. The room had a fitted sheet that didn’t fit the bed, the 3 pillows (it was a king) were very flat and old. The bathroom floor was sticky due to cleaning products not fully cleaned up. Nice TV, desk and free WiFi. Breakfast was okay, I think I was one of two guests so I don’t blame them for not having a lot. I was supposed to get the studio with a king bed/full kitchen and hot tub in the room. I got a regular king room I could have said something but honestly, with the room feeling so dirty I wouldn’t have used the hot tub anyway.

The overnight gentleman was very nice and helpful. The next morning was when all the terrible stuff started at about 7 am when the construction crew started nailing and working on the outside of the hotel. At 8 we were awakened again by the maid vacuuming the room next door to ours with what seemed like the loudest vacuum ever. Now the mattress was from the 90’s and no fitted sheets on it. There was only one outlet in the bathroom which was being used for the really cool lighted mirror but my wife had to unplug it to use her hairdryer. And last but not least the sink leaked. I would never stay there again honestly.

Pool was closed, reserved a room with a jacuzzi tub but there wasn’t enough hot water to have a bath. Our bed only had a sheet on it when we got there and it was almost 10 pm, and about 5 times of us asking for a comforter, before we were able to use our bed. There was a dog (belonged to the only person who appeared to be running the whole hotel) that was chained outside the door and there was a bunch of poop from it out in the grass making it very stinky. Didn’t appear to be anything ready for breakfast after the time that the continental breakfast started. Room was even still dark. I could clearly hear the tv in the next room and could even hear when people were urinating next door. We would never stay here again. Felt bad for the guy running the place. Seemed like a nice guy but they need way more staff to keep up with the whole place.

They didn't tell us when I booked my reservation that the pool has been closed forever and is no longer working so of course when you look it up on the website the pool looks amazing then we get there in our room doesn't have any air conditioning and it's 100° outside and we're on the second floor so they moved me to the only room they had available and that AC would drain all over the floor inside our room and then the toilet leaked every time you flushed it The bathtub had a huge crack in it so God only knows where that water was draining to The box springs were severely stained we ended up with sheets that were stained we talked to the manager several times they were not willing to do anything for us we'd contacted Expedia they contacted the hotel the hotel told them there was nothing wrong with our room that was not true

Overall, I had a pleasant stay thanks to the outstanding staff. Everyone I encountered was polite, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They went out of their way to make guests feel comfortable. Unfortunately, the hotel itself could use some updating. The bedding and towels were noticeably dated and worn, and the room itself was worn. The complimentary breakfast was average, with limited options and nothing that really stood out. If the hotel invests in refreshing the linens and improving the breakfast selection, it would better match the excellent level of service provided by its staff and justify the reasonable price.
