You falsified the quality of this room! I wasn't put in a room that was pictured. The room had MOLD, smelled to high heaven of heavy bleach to cover the smell of said mold that was visible! Causing blurred vision and instant migraine. You caught contact high checking in at front desk. Like employees were smoking Marijuana in the office! Room was filthy dirty. I will be contacting for a refund!!

The lights by the beds didn't work and neither did the plugs and USB ports for our phones. The light in the bathroom was basically burned out - it was barely even a dim light so we had to keep door open when in the shower to get light from the hallway. So it was pretty cold getting out of shower. Room 208 needs to be FIXED.

Sadly my family of 4 didn’t even stay two hours due to upstairs stomping around for hours causing my 1 year old to not be able to sleep. The room overall was a 4/10 . There was clear mold painted over in the bathroom. The sheets had someone’s hair on them. Lost 120$ and had to drive 3 hours home in the middle of the night.

The front desk staff put us in a room right next to the street with traffic noise although we asked for a quiet room. Room is small. Sink faucet has slow running water. Breakfast has only cold foods. There are hot coffee from a coffee maker machine. They have rotten apples in a basket for breakfast until we asked for fresh apples. Front desk staff service is not attentive to customers’ requests. We would not stay in this hotel again.
