Booked this stay to attend the nearby comic convention. Hotel was nice and clean. Has a decent indoor pool and exercise room. Upon arrival, the hotel had the parking lot blocked off and charging 15 dollars to park. We parked on the street and during checked-in I inquired about why the charge for parking to which the concierge said it was because of the convention. I asked if they would still charge without an event and she hesitated and then proceeded to lie saying they did. Thrity minutes later, after the convention ended, I walked out to go to dinner and the parking lot entrances were no longer blocked. For this, I won't do business here again. If I paid for a room, I should be able to use the parking lot.

Do Better to serve your customers

The dinner quality is not good for the price paid and the time waiting for it. It was simple food, but the bartender was good service. My children had to us one good towel and a couple unfortunately a used towel to dry off because the front staff was not in a hurry to help us get towels. My wife went to the front desk and so did I to ask for towels because they had none at the pool. It was only my two boys swimming and the lady I talked to at night 2/14/2025 at the front desk could have cared less so we had to be hostage at pool waiting for nothing and nobody for simple towels. If your staff can't get someone to bring towel and serve your guest, then find people that will. We were tired and wanted to go to our room. Had to wait in long line to buy enery drink in the morning at coffee shop with only one worker to finally be told we could buy the drinks at front desk. Honestly, the hotel needs to have a meeting and get the workers to get a grip on why they are there and who they need to serve. People pay their hard earned money and travel to stay there, the least you could do is your job and also sometimes when you cant get help from other workers, you have to do it yourself. There was one customer me, and two workers at desk, you could have made it happen, but didn't. It wasn't "VIP" at all.

Good things: easy parking and check-in. The bed and pillows are comfortable. Why I will not stay again: Our room is beyond outdated. I would give cleanliness a 1. The bathroom floors and counters were dirty. There was mold on the floor, and the bathroom door would not shut. The room smelled musky. The doorstop is disintegrating. The carpet is gross. The doors are scratched up. There are no outlets around the bed.

Our stay at the University Plaza Hotel was very good. The rooms are outdated but clean. The couch bed mattress left a lot to be desired, but they usually do. It also had numerous stains and no mattress cover. We had to go down and request bedding for it. The staff was pleasant and did deliver it to our room. Overall, a good experience and would stay again as it was very conveniently located and clean.

The rooms were very outdated and the shower and shower walls and ceilings were falling apart. The doors looked like rats chewed out of them. Parking lot was not cleared if snow in a timely manner and was not salted either, so it was very slippery.
