Beth

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pool was closed for repairs and has been for months. Not mentioned on the website at all. The room I prepaid for was rented to someone else before I arrived. Per the manager, they have minimal cleaning staff so there were no other single king rooms clean. They gave me a double queen room instead. The phone did not work. The electrical outlet by the beds did not work.

David

The entire hotel was being dehumidified with industrial fans and the noise was intolerable. The system for checking in was down and I needed to move to a private office and help the clerk with her iPad to help myself get checked in. The room was absolutely freezing cold, the pillows were tiny and you couldn't lay on your back and rest your entire head on them, and the showers were deficient and did not have consistent water pressure or temperature.

The pool was not in service but they gave us a 10% discount because of it. Very kind and good service. Room was kind of unclean and the water was slow to drain the shower. But overall good stay.
