No shuttle as advertised

The only reason I booked this hotel was for the airport shuttle. It is listed as available via the filter on the Hotels.com app. When checking in they stated they do not have a shuttle. So, I paid $60+ dollars in Uber fees.

When you are awakened at 3:00am to fire alarms going off it doesn’t make for a pleasant experience. Front desk staff was completely silent during the entire incident and we were finally told by firefighters that it was safe to go back in to our rooms….That was after an hour!

No house keeping was offered, the AC was out and they kept making excuses on when it would get fixed. They dont offer house keeping over the weekend, you have to take your own trash out and get clean towles from the front desk if they have them. The breakfast was a sorry excuss for continental breakfast. The staff was rude and lazy.
