Nice room but many channels did not work properly (the screen would freeze). Went for breakfast at 8:30 and they were out of almost everything. No eggs, no potatoes, no sausage and even their was no more coffee. Kitchen worker said they had m no I food left and blamed it on poor management. Spoke to front desk and they said to call Expedia so they could contact the hotel manager to give me a discount on my stay. I said my wife and I look for breakfast so we can save money by not going to a restaurant. Hallways had food or something everywhere. Coffee at front desk was Luke warmer and tasted like mud (probably from night before since she said they were waiting for a food delivery (poor management).

At the time of booking there were several positive reviews that in particular noted the hotel being clean which prompted me to book as we only needed a 1 night stay while passing through town. Upon arrival, I can overlook the tiredness of the hotel and the need to update many things. However, this property needs a MAJOR deep cleaning. Hallways are musty and smell of smoke; carpets are dingy, dirty, and need to be vacuumed. Trying to be positive, I hoped for better once in our room but despite red flags. Once in the room it was a relief there wasn’t a smell BUT the room was dingy and dirty! It was apparent the room hasn’t seen a vacuum with all the dirt on the floor (grass clippings along the slider, accumulation of dirt/dust, and other types of grossness that shouldn’t be on the floors but you don’t want to look too close to know). Walls are dirty, wallpaper/paint peeling, shower drain piece was pulled off and left on the tub ledge exposing the nasty drain but when you put it back where it belongs the water doesn’t drain properly so off it was left, toilet was dirty, bathroom counter was dirty, and more but I had to stop looking because the room was prepaid and calling for the room to be addressed wasn’t going to make a difference as it needs a team to REALLY clean it. Thank goodness for disinfectant wipes! We went out to watch a movie to decrease time in the room and hightailed it out in the AM. Ni blow dryer, called front desk, said they would bring one but never did.

Disgustingly dirty. Mold growing all over the bathroom. Carpet was sticky. Room smelled. Blanket on bed dirty. Staff were pleasant. Bed was comfortable if you could try to put the dirtiness out of your mind. Shower water pressure was good, but had to close your eyes to all the mold growing. Phone had no service/no place to plug into, couldn’t even call front desk from room. Just NO

Not impressed and would never stay there again. Place is unkempt and not maintained properly. Mold in bathroom grout was a turn off. Some kind of oily substance on pool surface. Hotel is just run down and looks like a cheap hotel. Elevator floors were also dirty. No thanks again.
I had to switch rooms because the first bathroom was just nasty
