As soon as I walked in the room I reserved I seen it was not clean. The walls were dirty I looked at the bed and the comforter was stained dirty and every single sheet on the bed had spots of stains. I immediately called the lady in the front and after I told her about the sheets being stained she kept repeating herself saying the bed is made the bed is made and she even hung up on me. I paid for a room I could not even stay in and the lady in the front who was there when I checked in and when I gave the key back said she was the manager. When you look on the wall to the left of the office it has a satisfaction promise that they will make it right if things are not satisfactory and they absolutely do not give that standard. They do not care and the price is not fair for what you get!

My room was clean. My only issues was: mini fridge was frosted over with ice which prevented items from becoming cold, the light in the coffee maker didn't work and they could have left an extra roll of toilet paper since the one on the roll had about 1/4 left on the roll for two people. All in all a decent stay for what I paid.
