Horrible

Didn’t have a crib. Called 2 weeks prior to arrange for a crib. Was told it was first come first serve but we’d be travelling on a Monday, as per the front desk, she’s never not had a crib available in her entire time working there on a Monday. Weird the one Monday I go, there aren’t any? I don’t even think this location has cribs it’s so run down. Pictures are deceiving. Front desk was barely helpful. Didn’t offer a receipt, asked me if she wanted my card on file charged, I said I wanted another card charged, she charged the one on file anyways? Didn’t give any information on breakfast. Definitely do not recommend.

Never Again

This is my fourth time having a bad experience with this hotel. I stayed because it’s close to family, once we found a used condominium, the power blew on one side of the room, they changed my room, only to get in the room next door and nothing worked but at that point I was tired.

I traveled from Michigan to attend a wedding and when i went to check in there was no electricity and no backup generators. We had to book another hotel to get changed and rushed to wedding. Stff didn't even update us about this earlier so we could figure out something in advance

Property was dirty, food on the foor while looking at our room. One of the elevators was not working so we had to walk to the end of the hall, get on the other elevator, go up then walk all the way back. Also the property decided to down grade our room from 1 king to 2 beds without telling us. Then when we went back to the front desk they wouldn't issue a refund. After i talked to expedia they agreed to give us less than half our money back.

Be aware

The room was not finished being cleaned from previous visitors. I hope clearly a mistake. Dirty towels left in the room, open food on the desk, and trash cans with trash. Although beds appeared to have been made up. Hotel was at max capacity, so there were no other rooms available. Will definitely NOT allow myself to let this happen again to me!

Clock in room not set to proper time and had to figure out how to set the time. Tried to get as much sleep as possible before checkout and received a knock at the door at 7AM. Then received a call on the room phone from the front desk saying they didn't have my room reserved for anyone. I needed sleep and didn't get much.

Stayed here a few times before and never had any issues until this stay. TV kept cutting off and the tub was dirty. On a good note the actual room was clean and bed was comfy. Got in my room super late so I wasn’t able to get ahold of front desk but I did inform clerk at check out.

The pool was closed. Expedia's site said it was closed during winter, but we visited in mid-June. The pool was covered by a tarp. Clearly the pool had not been open for a long, long time. That's unacceptable when traveling with two young children and specifically chose a hotel with a pool for entertainment purposes.

Stay with Dog

Quick overnight with our dog. Charged for the dog($65) extra - but front desk staff kindly offered us a first floor room - which made it so much easier with our dog. We also had a late bite at the bar- and it was solid. Very close to I-80- appreciated the convenient location. Older property but clean.
