The room we had we're very filthy. After all the reviews I read they stated that it was clean but ours was not. We had hair in our bed on a sheet and the bathtub backup and the floors had stuff still on them.

At check in there was only 1 attendent on Friday evening and the wait to just check in was nearly a 1/2 hour. The clerk was pleasant and apologized for the wait. The mattress was wonderful. Problems: could not get the cold water shower handle to turn down or off completely and the tv would come on the turn off immediately. We reported the water issue but not the tv.
