Sleep Inn

I would given this inn a better rating if it were not for the slippery tub. There was a caution notice on the mirror saying that we were to request a tub mat from the front desk if we found the tub to be slippery. The mat should have been provided in the room or the tub textured. I used the bathmat in the tub instead. This is a safety issue and not a time to be restrictive with safety devices.

Perfectly clean and well presented. The only thing we had to deal with was a noisy fan in the a/c unit and a random high pitched tone somewhere. Manager offered to move us to another room. We declined. Room 124 on 8/26/2025.
