My husband and me have stayed at this property in the exact same room last year. We were in an accessible room on the first floor right next to the ice and vending machines. Last year, the DirecTV was terrible. Kept skipping because it didn't connect to satellite very well. This year, we stayed in the same exact room. The problem was even worse than last year. This time, at least we could watch movies on Demand. This time around the bathroom smelled just like wet dog. Horrible. We needed to use the computer to print out some things for an event. Printer didn't work because toner needed to be changed. When my husband asked the front desk for toner. He was told they didn't have any, but provided an address at the front desk so we could forward the email to them to print out for us. The young man at the front desk just smiled and waved when we complained about the service, printer, and smell. Fine. But our experiences of this year and last solidified it for us. WE WILL NEVER STAY AT THIS HOTEL AGAIN!!! There are just too many other hotels that we feel might provide a better stay for us.

This was a not so good experience. The shower water was either hot or cold. No in between. The AC unit made a high pitched noise most of the time. There was construction noises eaarly mornings as well.
