The room was clean. The whole place could use some updates, for example the carpeting could have been cleaned or replaced. Curtains had cuts in them and the comforter had a burn hole but we were in a non-smoking room.

It was a little nicer than expected (especially since the carpeting was replaced with a vinyl wood floor). It was clean, but various things were broken. The bathroom door didn’t close or lock. The bathroom fan wasn’t working. The remote needed batteries. The front desk staff were helpful.

I had to get my cards reprogrammed several times, as they would only work no more than once each time. Or I had to have my family come to the door to let me in. I also tried to iron my shirt -- the ironing board was broken and the iron left rust stains on my white shirt. The property and room s were poorly maintained. Will never stay here again.

Don’t stay here.

The place is absolutely filthy. Shower leaked onto the floor. The sink dripped toilet barely flushed no hairdryer, dead bug in the room always very dark and carpets with filthy garbage on the property places like a homeless shelter. also people living there in the parking lot in their cars.

This hotel is just a dump. Aging infrastructure is one thing, but combine that with dirty, stained, broken, terrible odors … in the hall. The parking lot felt dangerous at night. Front desk staff nice enough, had to get our key reactivated at least twice so some interaction there. For the jacked up prices for UD parents weekend I’d rather camp next time. It was that bad.

The reason this isn’t a one star review is because the bed was actually comfortable. Other than that, this place is a dump. It was parents weekend at my daughter’s college so this was really the only place that had any openings. If given the choice, I would not stay here again.
