When I woke up to use the restroom, the water was off. I called the front desk and they stated that they will call me back with an update. I waited for over an hour and there was no return call I called back again and I was told the same thing, I waited two more hours and no callback. I call back a third time in the Front Desk told me they were on the phone with the water company to resolve the issue and they will give me a call back, but never did the water did come back on a few hours later , the smell of marijuana, was up and down the hallway and young children were sitting on top of the front desk countertop.

Room had dirty blanket and sheets on both beds. Dirty carpets and clumps of something on floor. …. Staff was very good though. Gave us clean sheets (that we put on), got us a tv controller because it was missing. We arrived late and were there to sleep for one night only, actually about five hours, or we would’ve never stayed and would have relocated for sure.

The hotel has potential but its transition to new administration proved to be a problem for us. I picked this hotel because of the airport shuttle and breakfast. It’s a lift service, but they did not communicate that. So I edited for an hour at the airport while trying to contact the hotel staff for clarification.The name change and the phone change confused everyone. I got stuck. So, communicate more the details in Expedia. The staff was very attentive. I do appreciate that!!but they said breakfast was 6 to 9 but there was no breakfast. I just left. Again, respectful staff caring are the reason I don’t give lowest rating

First they could not find our booking. Then the room they gave us had mold behind the bed and blood stains on the floor. The front desk moved us immediately To a different room that had roaches. The only good thing i can say about the stay is that the front seat lady was nice.
