Weekend not so much enjoyable….

Wasn’t made aware that the elevator wasn’t in working condition. So half of the time we were there I had to take stairs which not to mention from the 6th floor. My mother also has a bone disease and some days it’s hard on her knee so that took a toll on her with not being able to use the elevators so not real Handicap Accessible place this past weekend. Black Mold underneath the bathroom sink. Then my 4 year old was walking in front of me which was one of the stair events not knowing where the wet paint may be without signage posted he grabbed the rail and got his jacket covered in paint. After all of this I went to the front desk and voiced how frustrating this stay was for not only me but my family and the manager agreed to load 5,000 points to my account which isn’t really equivalent to a one night stay. I’m home now 8 hours away only to look at my account and I have 2,000 points what a slap in the face…..

Ownership did not disclose the property was undergoing renovation. Did not prepare their staff to speak to guests about this inconvenience. Elevators were in and out of service. Wasn’t acknowledged upon approaching the front desk. Shortened our stay after one night.

Arrived at the property to check in and was told that they were overbooked and had no rooms, I paid for the hotel one week previous. The hotel receptionist was not interested in helping but after me demonstrating that I paid for the hotel one week before, showing payment had left by bank, they then found a room for us (2 x queen bed room). The whole experience was bizarre, had no rooms then find us one after over 20mins! Would never stay at this hotel again

We always stay in this area when we drive through. Never had any problems before but it would have been nice to know the hotel was under construction. It smelled like wet paint throughout the entire hotel, excavators and dust everywhere.
