Disliked: Cleanliness
First off the staff was very friendly and helpful. Which was awesome.
Although room left me disappointed and a bit groused out. The Sofa had lots of visible stains. Curtain was ill fitting and falling off its track. Dust and trash in-between bed and end tables. Bathroom was clean and with new towels. Doors are heavy and loud when opening and closing at times I would hear others doors and it can be startling.
not good .. our rooms did not get cleaned we stayed 2days
I booked 3 room total, only 1 room was cleaned. not enough towels we had to keep asking for them and they were rude as well as toilet paper we will not be going back, and I will not recommend to anyone you should retrain your staff or they are not happy working there sorry for this review but we have never had this kind of experience anywhere else thank you for your time
The hotel is old but Clean, Bed is comfortable. has coffee pod which is much taste than other way.when the pod wash tru the high pressure the coffee is tate better.
The evening F.Desk mgr. Rick is the best.Friendly and effeciency and alway wling to offer the best to guest. He is the best F.Desk manager i have ever seen as i been travel 45 years.
The room was clean except for maybe a few stray hairs, the man at the front desk was very hospitable. We enjoyed our stay for the one night we stayed there

The stay was okay overall, however there was trashes under the couch, and fur on the couch. The ac turns on by itself when it’s off but works perfectly fine. Had some few yellow stain on the blanket. But me and my husband did love the body wash scent, and would love to know where you guys get it!
Have a good day
