They charged me a 200 damage deposit, but didn't clean the yellow stains, running down the wall in the bathroom and the water was black. The comforter on my bed had blood on it. The room had an overpowering smell of cigars. Had to open the windows hours before we were able to sleep in there.

I never actually stayed at the property, it was booked for a ball tournament that was cancelled last second. Hotel would not entertain requests from me or Expedia for a refund or to change dates (with no refund, even offered to pay a upcharge) simply said you’re out of luck. The manager was unavailable and would not return calls even when promised. I assume that was because of the overwhelming number of cancellations. However, I would expect better from Howard Johnson’s. There are many other better choices in every city.

Flawless from the moment I arrived this hotel is spotless, elegant, and beyond perfection. Not a single speck of dust, even the backyard gleams like a runway. Chic location, divine service, and worth far more than they charge. A stay fit for royalty and yes, this Queen approves.” 👑

Improper and bad service as well poor judgement.

Breakfast was a disaster since Saturday it took twenty minutes to have done actually find time to refill the food area. There was no one at the front desk where a clients waited for anyone to appear. The expectation to have breakfast before 10 am de as alone was failing the designate time s. No food available since the desk person appear to say he was sorry but was cleaning rooms and had no one else available until after 9 am. The photo of the lobby shows clean clear area . Office ladies room had no towels for the two mornings we stayed. The floor in our room 24 was broken at foot of bed. The floor outside of the bathroom was broken . The room itself smelled and felt damp. Bad place to stay and needs updating immediate. You should pay people to stay there. If this is your company’s idea of a hotel you need to send someone to actually inspect it.

Great family vacation!

Room was clean, except for the carpet. AC worked, large TV, no coffee/tea in the room (even though they provided a coffee machine and a cup), but was provided at breakfast. Cute room, good breakfast with lots of options and everything was fresh. Bed was firm, but comfy enough for sleeping, only 3 pillows were provided for 2 adults (wish they gave you 4 pillows), but they were alright. And the property offered nice, cozy vibes. Would definitely stay here again!
