Wasn’t greeted with any respect upon arrival. Needed to switch rooms to accommodate people and they didn’t look to help us at all. Asked for a cot and they don’t have any. Needed some extra pillows and blankets, and guess what, they don’t have any. Got handed a fitted sheet in place of those.

Staff and location were great. For my room being near the lobby it was quiet. I might suggest updating the shower, the shampoo dispenser was ready to fall off the wall and the shower head was so corroded not allowing much water pressure to come through.

Not overly impressed

My initial reaction wasn’t good. I checked in, and got to my room where the thermostat was, no joke, set at 92! The room wouldn’t cool off after I turned the thermostat off and the wall unit to cool. I opened the window and still was too hot.

I made a reservation but due to unforeseen circumstances I needed to move it one night forward. I spent an hour on the phone with the booking party and more time talking to the desk clerk at the hotel. The matter was resolved, then due to the inability of the hotel to process the $10.89 difference in rate with the booking party, the issue became more complicated than before. This simple request seemed to escape the capacity of the desk agent, so I called the manager who said the reservation was moved and there is no problem. When I arrived at the hotel tonight the same desk clerk insisted on charging me $189 to stay. I am furious and to make matters worse, I paid for two nights but am only staying one, and I am a REPEAT customer! I’ve stayed twice a year for the past 10 years! Well, that is gonna come to an end to be sure.

Disgusting!!

The worst extended stay I have ever been to, the room was barely clean, dirty dishes with rusted pots and pans. Old and stained tub with dingy towels and let’s not talk about the foul spell throughout the 1st floor! I almost threw up it stink so bad! The have some people that live there long term who had the whole 1st floor near the elevator funky! Laundry room was gross, dirty stained washers and dryers that look like it hasn’t been cleaned for years. Front desk and housekeeping coming in your room at 8 in the morning unannounced and someone snuck in the room and went into the bathroom while my daughter was in bed at 8 in the morning. Please do not stay there! The staff is weird and creepy, I will be filing a complaint with the BBB.

Not satisfied

Booked online. Chose this property because of close proximity to destination. Facility dated and not well maintained. Elevator door make loud noise each time it closed. Check in was poor. Person at desk asked the same questions for each of two rooms. “Would you like a late check out?” If I did not need late check out on first room I didn’t need on second room! I reserved 2 rooms each with 2 queen beds. During check in I clarified that both rooms were 1 queen beds. My in laws went to first room then I checked into second room. In laws went to their room and it took several minutes to get second one. My wife and daughter went to second room and it only had one bed!!! Came back down to desk and just told ‘sorry’. No attempt to correct or compensate for error. Over all disappointed. Cost of over $200 per night seemed excessive for what we got. I’ve stayed in $89 rooms that were much nicer.

The temperature control unit didn't work properly. It started at 63 degrees. Wouldn't respond to wall thermostat. When the thermostat on the unit was turned up, it took hours to warm the room up. Then it kept going up to 77 degree. Then it took hours to go back down some. Then in the middle of the night, the fan started cycling off and on in 30 second cycles blowing a cold draft down on the bed farthest away. That went on for hours. The bathroom door wouldn't latch. So if you shut it, it just drifted open a few inches immediately.
