I specifically stay at this hotel because it had a restaurant and bar. Both of which were demolished and under construction. We had to enter through the back of the building, which was littered with garbage and the temporary check-in area was a disaster area, very unhappy!

Meh… had I known…

The hotel was under MAJOR renovations. Services such as the gym was unavailable. Navigating through work site that doubled up as a hotel was unpleasant. The parking situation was less than ideal. When discussed with the staff, I was dismissed.

I usually stay at this location due to it being very close to my sons college. But they dont have a school discount. This time on my stay my room had mold in the bathroom shower and im allergic to mold but was only a one night stay. Check in was horrible my handicap cousin needed to use the rest room while checking in and was told their was no restroom available for regular people to utilize. Then provided a key to another room to use, i understand that its under construction and the kitchen was closed but was open for breakfast. I wish i had known before my stay that the kitchen was closed i would have made different accommodations before my visit. Staff needs customer service etiquette classes so they can learn that talking about handicap people is offensive and wrong. Other then that my stay was quiet.

Was very upset that none of the amenities were available. They said it had pool and the pool’s been closed for a long period of time but yet they still have the signs up on the elevator stating a pool and spa. They never notified anyone that there was renovations going on on their website until we already were there Very disappointed with notification because I definitely would’ve not picked there. It may have possibilities after renovation, but people really should be notified and if they say they did, it definitely wasn’t on there because I would’ve never picked it.
