It was fine. Nothing special. Room was fine. Bed was comfortable. The staff didn’t know if they had hair dryers. Elevators and hallways were very worn and looked they were not vacuumed regularly.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The key cards didn’t work (twice!), the shower head didn’t work. They switched me to another room with a ripped comforter, dirty bathroom floor, and multiple stained towels. It’s outdated and dirty all around. The vending machine is completely empty and there’s no room service at all. They refused to print me a receipt as well.

There were holes in our bathroom towels. I went to the counter to request new towels and waited almost 10 minutes for someone to answer the bell and then another 5 minutes to get the towels. You could feel the springs in the mattress of the king size bed.

Hotel was clean and the beds were pretty comfortable! The front desk worker was also the breakfast attendant! The breakfast area was still messy at 1:00 pm. The back door was not latched properly, so safety could be an issue. The hot tub was not working and was boarded over! This hotel served its purpose for our visit.

Won’t return

Very old hotel with poor condition of most things in room and facility. No updates to anything. Strange smell in room on check in. Almost as if someone had previously smoked in it. Pool in poor condition made us not want to use. Hot tub out of order. Staff typically not available at front desk. Breakfast was very limited.
