Rude desk clerk. No instructions on how to operate heating system. Unattractive, dated furnishings. Overall, a bit depressing. We felt it was unacceptable and left for a different hotel despite the fact that we lost our rental fee.

The bed was flat out terrible. Housekeeping never actually made the bed (which I don't mind), but after the first few days (I was there for two weeks) I had to ask for them to provide fresh towels/facecloths - it was clear they weren't coming into the room at all and it had to be requested.

Shellie

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room was filthy. Mirrors were not clean. Sinks, and counters were disgusting, I had old gum on my nightstand. The latch to keep you safe inside your room was busted off and not replaced, cracks in the floors full of hair and dirt, splatters on the wall, bed was hard as a rock, like sleeping on a box spring. Place was absolutely disgusting.

Positives, Clean sheets, towels. Clean bathroom. Negatives, room needs paint badly, room smelled musty and old, lock and screen to balcony need replacing, rug is very old and smells. Suggestions, as the owners may be new. They are trying, and it shows. Rooms definitely need updates to make this a higher rated property. Breakfast was fine. No complaints.

My gripe is more with Expedia than the hotel. My friend and I booked at the same exact time to make sure we both got a room. Her room was $203 mine $225 for exact same room. I would appreciate a refund for the difference as there is no reason for this arbitrary rate differential. Thank you, Barbara Eisenberg
