Ive not woke up in so much pain, the bed and "pillows" were so hard I couldnt even move to get out of the bed. Had to take 2 extra strength Tylenol before I could move. The breakfast was sad. This isnt worth more the $50 a night even as a pass through 1 nighter. It definitely looked questionable pulling in to, the pictures make it look better than reality. There were 2 lights out and the shower curtain rod was bent and you couldn't close the shower curtain as it just slid back to the middle. All around not a great experience other than the staff.

There was a sign out our window saying "bang bang enter and you die"...not all that conducive to feeling safe. Shower was clogged, moldy, floors were filthy, television not working, lock broken on door, breakfast was dried up looking danish and bagel and cereal. Forbthe price charged, it was a pit

OK Stay for F1 Race Weekend

The price was right for a 4 night stay while we attended F1 Race Weekend at COTA. The rooms do not have coffee makers, so we had to get our coffee from the Lobby. A few times during our stay the coffee dispenser was empty and we had to wait for a refill. The lobby and hall ways had a strange smell but the room was fine.
