Dated is one thing I’m willing to overlook but dirty and in a state of disrepair is another story. Ice machine inoperable, torn curtains, stained carpet and dust on several surfaces. Breakfast was actually pretty decent but out of three dispensers coffee ran out?!? Total incompetence on the hotel breakfast attendant. Also card keys didn’t work and I later read that this is an ongoing problem at this location. How this place received a high rating is a total mystery to me. Overall the worst hotel I’ve stayed at in twenty years.

Staff was very accommodating and nice. Beds were nice however room showed its age. Carpet and bathroom floors were not that great. We wore flip flops or socks to walk around the room. Breakfast wasn’t that great.

The beds were super comfortable. They didn’t have sheets or blankets to make up the couch bed. So I asked the front desk for the linens and 3 extra towels and the MOD was kinda rude about it, also they didn’t have any extra pillows or a roll away crib for the baby. The breakfast was surprisingly pretty good. The best part were the Texas shaped waffles that you could make yourself the only downside was there wasn’t any milk and it wasn’t replaced by the time we had to leave.
