The room had a musty smell to it and it was dark (ground floor room). Our patio only had one plastic chair. We asked the front desk if it would be possible to get another chair so two of us could sit outside on the patio, but we were told "no" there were no other chairs. However, the room was clean, and the staff was friendly. It served its purpose, but it was pretty no thrills.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Management was extremely rude unprofessional and just unkind. The man accused me of trying to pull something when I asked for some time to check out as I arrived at the hotel at about or past midnight and I needed more time to wake up. He then proceeded to blacklist me from the hotel and I honestly would like my money back because the experience was so bad I'd rather stay in my car as uncomfortable as that may be. I also left a jacket behind with my medication in the pocket and have not gone back to request it or to check if it was in Lost and found because I'm afraid of how this person will behave
