Stayed here a few weeks ago, i know the review isa but late however everyone needs to know my experience. I was in town for work, booked this nice looking spot on expedia, i get there after a 4 hr drive and check in, they did let me check in early however i went to shower and the water had a horrible metallic smell along with messed my skin up bad. There were box elder bugs all over the room i flushed about 40 of them throughout ny night. Wheb checking out the lobbby was closed so i was unable to make a complaint. 1 star.
