Not great for a couples weekend

From the outside we were unsure, but the loby was pretty nice so were kinda reasured. However, once we got in the room the pillowcases were dirty though the cleaning ladies had just finished cleaning supposedly. We exchanged the pillowcases but then I decided to check the rest of the bed and discovered cigarette burns on the mattress and the duvet. The jetted tub was nice though loud when turned on. There was also a cigarette burn on the tub which was irritating. Why some guests disrespect a room like that I dont get. Breakfast potatos, eggs, and cereal, but the breakfast room was pretty small with only one table. Our key stopped working before check out so my significant other stayed in the room while I took stuff to the car and he let me back in. Overall better for a quick place to crash not for a romantic weekend.

The room was clean. The pillows weren't very comfortable. The outside was very basic, no visible signage. The pool was drained and pool area looked like they were using it for storage. Very noisy, between cars and trains. The walls are thin, you could hear everything going on outside the room.

At first I thought it was okay. The lobby was clean and smelled great! However, when I started to really look hard at the room I noticed makeup and other stains on the pillow cases which made me really scared to sleep under the covers not knowing how often they change out their bedding.
