When we checked into our hotel room, we were met by firemen responding to a flood, and there was no running water. We immediately checked out due to the lack of water and were told we would be refunded.

Traveled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was not equipped properly. There were not enough towels, there was no phone to call the front desk, the tv was not working and the carpet looked absolutely disgusting. The common areas, such as the dining room, were not taken care of properly. The trash cans were leaking onto the floor, and no member of staff took any action about it. A lack of interest, initiative, or solutions from the staff was a major issue. When these complaints were presented, they did nothing about them and provided no explanation or adequate solution. When approached, the staff made false promises by saying "we'll be up to fix the issue" and then never showed up. We did not change hotel as we arrived late in the evening and were very tired and wanted to only rest to be able to leave early in the morning the next day to continue our trip.

Horrible hotel

When we arrrived for check in with our family, there was only 2 staff members and there was a huge line. Multiple people were coming back to the front because something was wrong (card wasn’t working, something broken etc) We were travelling with our 6 and 4 year old. They gave us a key and when we went all the way up to our room there was a ladder, drill, and maintenance tools. So we went back and it took them 30 min to get us another room at 930 at night. Rooms were not clean. Carpet was wet. Horrible stay

Given an occupied room and walked into a family sleeping around 1am in the morning. Alot of confusion by both parties and could have led to a dangerous situation with a family sleeping having people walk in on them. Not offered anything or compensated for this concerning/dangerous situation. Only an apology for the mizlx up after walking fully into a room in the middle of night with a family sleeping that nearly led to a hostile situation by the father in there and understandbly so with unknown people walking into your room.
