Horrible service.
Breakfast had barely any options
Staff first day was a gentleman, was kind helpful and pleasant lady next day was RUDE argued with me when I asked for milk for my cereal ignored my request for items multiple times
Room was FILTHY hair everywhere showers dirty towels had a horrible odor
Door would not latched closed
After a day at a funeral service came back to room to relax was disturbed by BANGING loud knocks at about midnight on the door when answering no one was there.
Water was brown colored coming from sink . Blankets were cigarette burn marks everywhere in a non smoking room . Electrical outlet sparked a flame when inserting my charger .
Worse hotel experience EVER
Staff and management zero help to accommodate us. Horrible and dirty property and rooms. Room had a hole in the wall, used soap bar in the shower, tons of rust around. Do not recommend
This hotel was very dirty. We had to move rooms and it still was not acceptable. Will never stay here again.

Disliked: Staff & service
One of the top 5 worst stays I’ve had.
No tissues, 1/2 roll of TP for 2 people. 3 very small pillows for a king bed. Asked for another pillow and told NO! No cups. No knobs on drawers. Card key did not work. Electrical outlet hanging out of wall. Want Eggs for breakfast? Handed out 3 hard boiled eggs!!
Room was as described in photos, though a tad dated. Unfortunately, we arrived a little late for the breakfast, and there was no milk/cream. The food was acceptable and the friendly employee assisting with serving made the experience positive.
