Not Recommended

My family’s stay was disappointing, but I hope this feedback aids improvement. Arriving in the late evening on Friday, we found limited parking due to storage containers at the lot’s far end, forcing us to park in a poorly lit, secluded area near the street, which felt unsafe. The hallway to our room reeked of skunk-weed, impacting our first impression of the hotel. We booked a room for 3 people, a king with a pullout sofa for our son, but no bedding was provided in the room for the sofa bed. When I called the front desk, I was told I had to walk down to the front desk to get it myself. The staff, though polite, initially gave me only a wadded-up blanket. When I asked for sheets, she went back and retrieved a wad of sheets; back in the room, I realized it was the wrong size for the sofa bed and lacked a top sheet. Exhausted, I chose not to return to the desk. The sofa bed mattress was old, yellowed and uncomfortable. The king bed was comfortable, the only nice part of the room. The bathroom faucet wouldn’t switch to the showerhead, streaming only from the faucet despite pulling the shower pin. My husband couldn’t fix it, and we reported it the next day. I requested a partial refund for the inability to shower, but was told prepayment made this impossible. Later, the staff offered a room change, but as we were settled, moving for showers was impractical. I appreciated the attempt to address the concern.

There was a stench in the hallway that smelled like cat pee, which I know to be the padding underneath the carpeting. The room was not very clean.

Room was okay, the bathroom was awful there was mold all over the tub and the used some sort of mat to cover it up but the mold it growing outside of the mat now and the shower curtain and linens had rips/holes in them. Other than those issues the hotel was quiet and conveniently located next to shops and restaurants.

The room given to us had a leak in the bathroom, so we had to change to a different room. The desk clerk was very nice and helpful, but she had reported that issue to housekeeping 2 days ago. The rooms could use a good thorough cleaning.

Rough for little old ladies

Bed was too high off the ground. At 63 and only 5 feet tall, I had to push the foot stool around the room to get into bed. Nothing in or around the tub to hold on to for getting in and out of the shower. Cost was fair and front desk was nice. But there was no ice available until the middle of the night.
