Stephan

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was unprofessional. Had a dog behind the counter that kept barking at us and jumping on the counter. Asked for a hair dryer and she said she would bring one to our room, but never did. Room reeked of strong chemical air freshener. Furniture was beat up and mattress had plastic sheets. Mattress was very hard and yet mushy at the same time. We found two small cockroaches on the bed. Faucet in shower fell off. Television was a Roku, but none of the pay channels worked. Free breakfast was terrible, and even though we were the only ones in the dining hall, most of the food was cold and the juice machine and hot water kettle were out of order. There is a cemetery on the premises and the hotel itself is falling apart. Absolutely the worst hotel we've ever stayed in. Truly awful.
