Considering they rented me a room with my children and there was shattered glass and a bullet hole through the curtains I have to say the stay was awful. My kids were scared to death to sleep there. I spoke with them and they offered to refund and said they weren’t supposed to rent that room. However still no refund and they denied the request through Expedia. So beware!
Draperies are ripped throughout as i closed them. Pillows are about the size of my hand. The shower felt like it was about to rip out the wall and the shower head sprayed half the water to the ceiling. White residue on dresser and side table. People smoking right outside the door.
Great value for the price I paid. I needed a no-frills low cost place to lay my head for the night and this place fit that bill. I would stay here again with out hesitation.
Staff was great and very helpful but property was not as advertised and the amount of pot smoking inside the hotel was just horrendous especially when traveling with young children.
This place is a switch and bait. Picture is for the Radisson in the front and the Derby is an old building attached in the back. Nasty looking and old. Do not believe the picture on the internet. I felt dirty and not safe there. One guy was watching us unload the car and made me uncomfortable. Would never recommend or stay there again.
The most disgusting place I have ever been to in my whole life, starting with the pubic hair in the bathroom everywhere and found some pubic hair in the sheets of the bed, then the shower curtain had multiple rips and so did the curtains, the dresser draw was broken and i couldn't put my clothes in it, The staff did nothing, The manger threatened to call the cops and we paid $488 for 3 nights to be treated like this which was outrageous and the pool wasn't even nice.
The front desk clerk was absolutely amazing. It’s definitely outdated but decent for the price.

The hotel is nice but the rooms are very run down. Bathroom in the room needs a lot of work. Had almost no hot water. Toilet made lots of noise when flushed.
Found bed bugs and room had a weird smell. They ask for an additional $50 deposit (return when you check out) but was still blindsided by this. Wouldn’t recommend.
Was an ok hotel but was unimpressed by the hole in the window when we arrived couldn’t find another hotel to stay at or another room

TV did not work. Hot water only tempered. Rooms were rusty. Cleaning service did not show up. Do not go to this hotel. Hotel would not provide credit for for what was not delivered.
Pool was nice, room needed a little work, overall à good stay for the price. Only problem I really had was when I rented the room it stated that there were queen sized beds in the room, but they were full sized beds. We really needed the queens, so we won’t likely stay here again unless we only need one king bed.

The cost is sufficient to the property. Don’t think you are staying at a 5 star hotel when it’s a 1 star.
As far as it being clean, yes . As far as the furniture old, not going to put it down to much cause of the price . Staff was very nice .
