Honestly the hotel wasn’t that bad. I had an accessible room and the bathroom wasn’t as clean as I hoped. There weren’t any trash bags. A couple little bugs made an appearance in the bathroom. Breakfast wasn’t really satisfying. It was a nice stay but definitely felt like it should’ve been cheaper.

Moldy Room, Clogged Shower, and Unwelcoming Staff

We had a very disappointing stay. The 3rd floor smells. As soon as we walked into the room, we were hit with a strong moldy smell—most likely coming from the old carpet. It made the entire space feel unclean and uncomfortable. The shower was just as bad, draining so slowly that the water rose up to our ankles during use. It was honestly disgusting. On top of that, some staff members make us feel more like a burden than guests. We won’t be returning and can’t recommend this place to anyone.

The hotel is nice if you’re just in the area for a quick weekend or work trip. The hotel seems worn down the tub seemed like it had been repainted but the paint was chipping off… very odd. And I previously read a review that mentioned the tub but i hoped it had been fixed. Nope. The tub in our room didn’t drain either if your shower is longer than 5 min the water will be at your ankles by the time minute six hits. However the staff is amazing and the location of the hotel is so great!
