Checked us in the wrong room, we entered with the key they gave us and it was an occupied room! All I got from the front desk was sorry for the inconvenience. That’s dangerous not an inconvenience. That is unacceptable.

It was okay. They tried to give us a room that smelt like cigarette smoke as soon as you walked in door that suppose to been non smoking. Bed however was comfortable but didn’t seem like they changed the bedding, we had stains on blanket. When asking for new bed linen the lady who got on shift had a bad attitude about it. Our room smelt like straight up cologne like they just sprayed it to cover up a certain smell. Silver ware was not clean and had food left on them that hardened. Fridge didn’t work but freezer did. It was okay but definitely not worth $140+ for one night.
