Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff has been very rude right from the beginning when my wife asked if she could check in ahead of myself as I’m at work. The receptionist was very condescending and mentioned that they can’t do that even if we provided all my reservation information. On checkout - we inquired and confirmed the time is 12 PM and we got knocked by staff at 11:50 to come out of the room…UNBELIEVABLE!

The carpets in the hallways are terrible. They are detached from the floor and look strange. My room, for example, does not look like a hotel room but rather a motel room. For this price, I don't think guests deserve such a place to stay. I did not eat during my stay.

I was originally going to take my sister out to a choice of a number of restaurants in the area. However, I checked out the Happy Hour specials at Myla's and it didn't seem to make sense to go elsewhere. The food was great, and fantastic prices on the drinks and selective food that was reduced in price during Happy Hours.

Very clean room! I was a little bothered by the fact that the host at the restaurant was pretty rude when said I “couldn’t use by free appetizer coupon”. I was only staying for one night, so when would I have had a chance to use it??

First the room door lock wouldn’t work and we had to change rooms. The carpets were lumpy and I tripped a couple times and the bathtub was not clean. We had asked the cleaner to do our room, but was not done. She had misunderstood my husband.
