The staff was amazing there. The only thing I did not like was when we got to the room. We did see a lot of paint peeling on the ceiling. And when we got there in the room in the bathroom, there was only one shampoo one conditioner and it was booked for 2 adults So last night when we got back from the concert, we were to ask again for the conditioner and they had none.

We were stuck for the night after cancelled flights. This hotel was recommended by another passenger but we will not stay there again. First room we were given was under construction no tub no toilet ceiling debris on the floor beds not made. Went back and was given another room but after a long day of travel the staff should have known what was usable and what was not

I booked here after a flight cancellation. The staff were super pleasant and the facilities, although outdated, seemed kept up with. My first complaint would be about the beds. My son and I shared a room with 2 queens. I gave him the mattress that seemed decent enough, but the bed I slept in was like a piece of plywood with a 1/2 inch pad. It was the only time I've removed a fitted sheet to make sure it was in fact a mattress under it. My biggest complaint comes in the form of an event that was being hosted at the hotel. From my understanding it was a very LARGE family reunion that featured a DJ. I don't know if they could have turned the volume up louder than they had it. The TV in our room was hard to hear over the music playing several floors below us and the entire room was vibrating. I believe they finally cut it at 11pm. I understand this probably isn't an everyday occurence, but it seemed ridiculous to me that the music was allowed to be held at that level.

Hotel could use upgrade--hall carpeting was old, dirty; hotel room door had gap; noisy (end of hall room--never get those--could hear everything from doors opening/closing to voices); limited dining, food mostly tasteless, and semi-burnt (grilled cheese and bacon) restaurant staff very friendly, though

Our stay was great, we needed somewhere close to the airport and this worked out great. On a side note, the staff was very kind and very helpful. My son forgot his headphones in the room and after talking with the staff on the phone they found the headphones and we were able to get them shipped to us. They were very kind and helpful through the whole process. Thanks for the great stay!
