Room odor

I didn’t give a good review because the room had an odor which kept me awake. The bath tub had hair in it and the towel and wash clothes had hair weaved in it. That was disgusting. I was unable to tell staff because we returned from our event late and left early.

The only problem was with the entry door. I think the floor was warped so the door was extremely difficult to open.

Nice Experience

Very nice lady checked me in, and the process only took a few minutes. Hotel grounds well-kept with good security lighting and plenty of parking spaces. Room was nice and clean and free of odor. Bed very comfortable. Best night's sleep I have had in a while. On the outer edge of town but restaurants and businesses nearby. I'll be back.
