The fire alarm is broken. Front desk told me that the ones in the room are fine so not to worry. But when I did the chat with Expedia (who called the desk) they lied and told Expedia that it’s an ice maker. No hotel ice maker has a beep that imitates a fire alarm. Even if that were true, it does not account for the SECOND beep coming from somewhere in the desk area or hallway. You can hear them overlapping. It’s move in weekend so we literally can’t go anywhere else. It’s also not well maintained and I’m honestly surprised that Choice hotels allows them naming rights

For the amount of money you pay for one night stays, youd think the pool would be clean the place outside of it was full of empty beer bottles and cigarette buts, the inside of the hotel was just dirty, the walls the floors, it just wasn't a good experience
