The building is ancient and badly needs an update. The jet tub was perfect. Thank goodness for that since that’s what I wanted but the rest was very mediocre and dirty. Thank goodness for mattress covers too. Not a place to stay if you will be mostly in your room which I was not.

Hard Pass

It looked liked a tweaker pad with cheap furniture, sparse. A cockroach was in the bathroom. A towel fixture was falling out of the wall, a light didn't work. I left that evening within an hour.

Upon arrival, customer service was excellent. Once it was time to get to my room. I had a hard time finding it. There are no clear instructions on which way to go and it was raining this night so I had to keep getting out of my car to go up to the suite to see which number was mine. Once I got inside the suite it was filthy. Things were broken sheets were dirty in the bathroom. I could hear the conversation of the couple right underneath me or next-door. I don’t know. I just know that it sounded like they were in the same room with me. I will never return here and I suggest you don’t go here. You will be disappointed. I have pictures. I wish I could post them, but I will post them on my Google review.

Ceiling was crumbling down on our bed and the bed and pillows were too hard. The hallway carpets smell is vomit inducing and the employees are not friendly. The place is dirty and looks like a slum. Something red was leaking on the bed and the staff would not replace the bedspread until we left. The bathroom sink was leaking the whole time and they didn’t do anything about it. I could go on but just don’t stay there. The hallways were suffering my hot. Yes the headboard was cracked and not stable so banging on the wall if I moved my head.
