Staff was a little impersonal - not unfriendly, but not welcoming either. The check-in process seemed purely transactional. The hotel room itself was in disrepair - exposed carpet tacks; lamps without shades; facial tissue plugging up holes in walls; disconnected smoke alarms. The bed linens were clean, at least.

Worst reception ever. Place looked dirty even from the lobby and parking lot was unkept. Front desk clerk was so rude and unprofessional when he told me our reservation could not be honored because they were booked. He was not apologetic and walked away. I was happy not to stay there. Do not recommend this place.

Upon entering the room noticed the AC was running but temp was probably in the 80s. The thermostat was set to 65 but it was not cooling the room. Found the smoke detector laying on the dresser, one bed had stains on the bedspread and the bathroom did not look very clean. The room was dated and had a musty smell. The hotel staff refunded our money and we left.

Room needs serious repair. A/C didn't work properly. Fridge didn't work. Wall around A/C needs repair. Could not get into room with key because evidently battery was dead and they had no spare batteries. Had to have staff let me in every time I left and returned. Entire property needs serious maintenance and remodeling. I am not a picky person, but I will not stay here again.
