Check in went okay. But the shower was broken. They accused me of breaking it. Then she told a 70 year old women to take a bath and they had stained old bathtub that had old dirty strips in bottom of the bathtub.she wanted us to put our Arse/Butt on that. I refused and I want you to stop payment at once or I will. She wanted us to go to next room to shower and move all our stuff there and charge me again for room.i refused I paid for room to sleep and shower to attend funeral and neither of us could shower. No free coffee or ice. Said room was newly remodeled , painted old paneling. And a broken shower is Remodeling ..He threatened and swore at us. And said 3 times get the hell off my f...ing property and she said it twice to. We were in our nightwear and wanted to shower. Had to go to funeral with a Dirty body.... I have never been so mistreated in 70 years Unbelievable.....
