The room did not have hot water. The phone rang several times throughout the night. AC system turns off and turns on so loud you can that I couldnt sleep. When I complained, the staff just said, "oh". Oh and the blinds dont close.

Upon checking in, the TV didn’t work so the front desk man said the batteries needed replacing so after switching them out, it still didn’t work so he moved me to room 218 and that TV was not working properly, dark screen. The AC in the new room didn’t work properly either. When I checked out, the front desk woman just said she was sorry but didn’t offer any help or anything to compensate for the problems I experienced. I’ve stayed here at least 5 other times.

Parking was easy but not exactly secure. The area was quite strange with a Dennys part of the hotel property. Dinner was as Jimmy Buffet said it… my chicken died in vain. Beds were clean and comfortable but the toilet took a couple flushes to empty. The exterior of the hotel entrance smelled of stale garbage although none could be seen.
