Rude ignorant staff, i could not understand anything they said it took 20 minutes to get checked in, they could not find the reservation, the they wanted a cash deposit, then they wanted more paperwork filled out, it took 30 minutes to get to the room because of the incompetent and rude arrogant staff
front desk not friendly lady was in a bad mood irritated like if she didnt want to be at work. room was bad toilet was clogged and no one was able to help us did checked out early morning trying to look for another hotel to finish our business trip. will not recomend this hotel
The beds were uncomfortable, you could feel the springs, there was yellowing in the bathrooms on the ceiling, the pool and hottub were both filthy and the was a spider in one of the beds
The room was recently renovated and was fantastic! Only complaint was that the bed was very lumpy and worn out. Plus there was not enough handicap parking spots or wide/long enough parking spaces. Some sketchy people around but we had no issues. Nice place to stay and we'll be staying there again!
The lady a front desk was rude, the people in the room next to us were fighting and screaming to the top of their lungs for over an hour and no one did anything about it. Wow just crazy there never again.
They don't sweep very often and having laundry facility advertised and then realize it's down isn't cool. Especially since your charged for that option anyhow. Nowhere on the site does it mention that it's not available. And changing the time to get coffee in the office. All of a sudden it's not available after 10am and pulled and it's always cold and weak. Nothing like cutting corners huh? It really sucks because if a motel doesn't have coffee available 24/7 like almost all do......then it's a game changer and not worth staying there. Why isn't a lot of amenities not posted on site when your booking and thinking your getting all of them????????? We are paying for them, right?
