Hotel rooms are outdated, AC didn’t work room was hot. Bathroom is outdated, the toilet wasn’t running off and on. The only good thing about this hotel is the bar area the bartender was very friendly. I have stayed at this hotel many times and the only change that has been made is the Name of the Hotel and the hotel sign on the building.

The room was very hot! Air wasn’t working very well. The website states buffet is complementary, but it really is not. They were charging us 21 dollars for the buffet. Also, they were undergoing renovations and this was not disclosed to us prior.

The staff neglected to make our stay even somewhat pleasant. From check in until departure. Poor front desk staff. The room key failed many times. The air conditioner did not work in my room , the room didnt have complimentary soap or shampoo and the shaving kit was old as dirty. Bad experience. When we booked online it stated complimentary breakfast, once we got there the staff said it was 21.00 dollars. Plus the hotel was going under renovation. None of the complaints we listed were noted online when booking. We should be completely refunded or heavily credited for such a bad experience. Travelers beware.
