We got the feeling it was an older building. The shower in our room only gave very hot water no matter where you turned the handle. No towels replacement, but we did notice that at other places if more than a one night stay.

Julia

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed two nights at the hotel, and it was a terrible experience. On the first night, some people who were installing mirrors in the rooms came into our bedroom without permission. Even though they heard us inside, they opened the door anyway. The following night, we noticed that the cleaning was done halfway and not a single towel was left. When I went downstairs to ask for towels, the lady on the night shift only gave me two, and when I asked for a third one, she got upset and told me how annoyed she was to give it to me. There was also a swamp cooler in the room that made an excessive amount of noise, making it hard to sleep at night. The elevator didn’t reach the second floor, the ice machines were not working, and the pool area was under renovation. Overall, a terrible experience — and it’s not even a cheap hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was okay, the staff was the most pleasant part of the stay. The hotel is very worn and we had a room on the 2nd floor. They are having elevator issues and you can take the elevator up, but the elevator could not be called up to the 2nd floor. It was a pain to deal with. The room was extremely damp and apparently there were some issues with moisture within the hotel because there were fans setup in the mechanical rooms and stairways. The most disturbing thing about the stay is we had our door hanger turned to Do Not Disturb during the day when we left. When we returned that evening not only did house keeping come and switch out our towels, but maintenance had also been in our room and replaced the full length mirror while we were out. There wasn’t anything wrong with the mirror. We didn’t complain but that is shady and will not stay there again. The elevator has also been broken for three weeks.

Great stay

The front desk attendant, Evelyn was so sweet, even as she was dealing with a disgruntle guest that was checking out. She kept a smile on her face and went above and beyond to make sure that me and my husband were taken care of. We were greeted every time we went in and out of the front door, even at checkout
