The property as a whole is older and not well maintained. When we checked in the water had been shut off all day and was going to be off for several more hours. Our first room had droplets of blood on the floor by the toilet. The second room was fine, but I won’t be going back. The common areas were dirty, and the place as a whole was dated and not well cared for. I was very disappointed. On a positive note, the lady at the front desk, Charm was kind, apologetic, and helpful.

They were doing renovations. The room was humid. I believe the carpet had been cleaned and was not completely dry. The air conditioner was set to 69. The thermostat could be changed but the air temperature never changed.

Nice but could easily be better

The stay was good. The rooms are nice. They have two external doors ok the north side that were never closed. They were always propped open. I know it’s a nice location, but the security was lacking.

On checkin- not given WiFi or breakfast info. 1st room: soap dispenser filed with water. Broken toilet. No answer when called front desk. Asked for new room. 2nd room: so dirty. Not vacuumed. Chip crumbs on carpet. I stepped on a broken wooden golf tee. There was a pubic hair sticking to the bathroom door. That’s when we left. Outside, there was broken glass at the entrance.

We’ve been staying in this hotel for years. This is the first time we’ve noticed how worn everything is. Comfortable beds, but we are happy they are renovating.

The property is in such poor condition that the handles have been torn off all the exterior doors. They don’t close, much less lock. I’m a female traveling alone and felt very unsafe. Paint is peeling off the bathtub. The toilet paper holder has been torn off the wall.

We had a king bed with pull out couch for our kids. The pull out bed had dirty sheets on it that had some pretty nasty stains on them. The bathroom door didn’t shut all the way and the main door to the room had to be pushed pretty hard to be closed all the way. The hallways were dirty and the elevator was very hot. The water pressure was very good though as was the air conditioning.
