The room didn't feel like $190 worth. It was super outdated, I know I'm not there to watch tv but that thing looked like it was just bought when flat screens started coming out. The bathroom door was like a sliding closet door that was hard to get out of the hole it pushes into cause there's no handle or anything to grab. The breakfast didn't have much when I went to it, barely 1 or 2 muffins, some packs of instant grits and juice and coffee was about it, ended up going out for breakfast even though it was supposed to be included. Maybe would have been worth 80 to 100 dollars but not almost 200.

We booked a reservation online and it was confirmed, only to arrive at the hotel and be told that the desk attendant had cancelled it because she believed the hotel was full. We asked her to confirm and she rudely told us she was the only person there. When we inquired about different room types that may be available, she told us there would be a significant cost increase. She was extremely unhelpful and we ended up booking at another hotel.
