Disappointed.

This hotel is the definition of "not my problem". The only person I found doing their job well was the lovely woman who made sure everyone paid for the mediocre breakfast. The sink was half enameled, there was paint down the walls in the bathroom, the shower curtain was damaged. I attempted to change rooms to be faced with still damaged shower curtains and mold around the tub. There is no taking pride in this location. And when confronted with the problem it was essentially a shrug. Their customer service is not set up to have repeat customers. I have been an IGH member for decades- and I am considering to change loyalty for myself and staff based on this location.

Property was close to medical facility for procedure to be done following day. Hotel didn’t smell the greatest, waited 10 minutes or so to check in because no one was at the front desk, pool wasn’t clean, lobby needed some refreshing.

The rooms and the swimming pool were nice. My only complaint is that very little water would come out from the shower head, so it would take us a long time to take a shower.

We had NO hot water and the hotel was sold out so we couldnt get another room. No price adjustment was offered after we asked. The hotel smelled horrible. Folks were in the hot tub at 11p and we were told we couldnt go in because it closed at 10p. Only when we asked did the clerk tell everyone the pool was closed
