Actually there is no breakfast, the breakfast room is just a small cabinet, no tables, no chairs, no eggs, no milk, no bread, no pancakes, no cereal.
Only a few Cookie and coffee and some dried orange.
If you care about breakfast, this is not your choice.
Location was perfect. Staff was great. They helped with my child who is currently in waiting on a hip replacement. Little chilly in the room an extra blanket would’ve been good.
Refrigerator was dirty and did not work and difficult restroom door (no privacy) and hard to slide open and would constantly get stuck.

Liked: Staff & service
Our hotel room had no hand soap, body soap, shampoo, conditioner, tissues. All left empty bottles/boxes upon arrival. Things were semi clean, toilet needed cleaning and the curtains were stained. Staff was nice.. price was good so didn’t expect anything fancy just wish they could have stocked things before they checked us in
I would never stay in this hotel again. I had to ask for a room change on the first day. Room had a bad smell, sheets were dirty and bathroom was not cleaned. Phones were not working. I called front desk from my cell to come and take a look. I was moved to another room that the bathroom had mold in the ceiling. Tub was clogged. I had to call them to come and fix it. It was so
Unhygienic to stay. I had no choice at the time since my husband was in ICU that hotel was closes to the hospital.
I was *not* happy with this hotel. Do not stay here. There was dust on the coffee maker, & the cushions on the sofa bed had the foam stuffing coming out of them. The cover was off the air cond, & it was covered in greasy dirt that someone had swiped through in an attempt to clean it. The flooring was coming away from the baseboard near the door. There was no bedding for the sofa bed even though the reservation was for 3 persons. There was only one person on duty - the front desk clerk. There wasn't any housekeeping staff on duty, so the front desk person had to go retrieve bedding for us. At least the bathroom was acceptable.There was another guest @ front desk waiting for his refund because his first room had feces in the toilet, & the second had dirty water & used bar of soap in bathtub. Ugh.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Mold in the room and a disgusting deposit in the ice bucket. We did not stay and were surprised how easy it was to get it resolved through expedia.
Outdated property & ok for one night stay. Room was not cleaned well from previous stay. Bathtub had hairs all over it, floor was sticky & dirty. Shampoo/body wash bottles were empty. Fridge was not plugged in. Toilet was clogged. Front desk service was friendly & tried their best to handle things. We tipped housekeeper but they don't really deserve it.
The gentleman at check in was amazing. Super friendly and great personality. Location of the hotel was great. Other than those two things, I don’t have anything good to say. The condition of our room was terrible from paint falling off the walls, ripped up draperies, dirty toilet which was so loud when it flushed, poor condition of bathroom tile and plumbing fixtures, thin walls which meant we heard everything from other other rooms. This hotel needs a serious overhaul. Too much deferred maintenance.
Everything was good, but the toilet is a little low for a tall person. Otherwise convenient with walking around and shopping area. We will stay there again next time.
