Above and Beyond

Excellent service from Trisha! She went above and beyond, and we really appreciate it. A small suggestion: it would be great to have an extra folding chair in the closet so two people can sit down for dinner together. Finally, We will definitely make this our first option the next time we're in the area.

Dirty and nasty

When I walked into my room it smelled like mildew. Upon setting my things down and getting ready to shower, I realized they only gave me one towel when it’s 2 adults listed on the reservation so I had to go back downstairs and ask the front desk for towels. Setting my things down in the bathroom to shower and I realized the toilet is dirty “ fecal matter on toilet seat” , there’s hair all on the toilet seat as well. There’s poop residue on the toilet. After cleaning the bathroom I shower quickly and get out to look through my bag and I spot something on the floor , as I look closer I realize it’s a dead roach. The carpet is wet so that’s where the smell of mildew is coming from. The sheets and blankets are dirty. I will never stay here again. It’s pure disgusting

The staff were kind and professional, and they answered any questions I had. My only point to add is that the coffee is in the laundry and gym room. I would like to suggest that it be placed somewhere in the main entry area as a welcoming offer to the guest. I was there for four days, and I only found out about it when I was using the gym one day. Other than that, I look forward to returning soon.

The pictures are not accurate at all!

I arrived at 3:15 and was told it wouldn’t be a problem to check in. After some minutes I was asked if I wanted to go get lunch and the room actually wasn’t ready. When we return around 3:50 we were told to give them more time and put in a dirty waiting room which was just the gym/laundry machine room. My wife wanted us to have a nice trip and not get upset so I waited even though it was 4:15 when someone came to say our room was finally ready. Finally get to our room, and the doors unlocked. Told inside and the bottom of the sink open. I call downstairs and some guy comes where I have to ask what he’s doing. He says fixing the disposal. I asked how long that would take and he said about 45 minutes! I called back downstairs and told them it was unacceptable that this was happening when we just checked in and my wife and I are trying to shower and I literally have a baby in my arms. Again I could see my wife was trying to have me and her, keep our cool. The woman from check in said if we don’t need the disposal they can return tomorrow. I told them to do that. The room wasn’t any better. Dust everywhere. Didn’t want to sit on the couch it looked so dirty. Had to turn the AC to 61 to get it to cool. Restroom dirty and lighting broken. It was awful. The area was awful as well. Looks NOTHING like the photos on this app. Now I’m looking at my credit transactions and the $50 hold they put on my card was CHARGED! I will be calling and getting that money back. This is unacceptable!

I loved the fact that there are kitchen cookware and utensils in the areas and there are additional tools in the shared room for guests to use. It definitely enhanced the hotel stay immensely for us. We enjoy cooking ourselves over going out to eat.

Concern over safety

It was a good room. Unfortunately the power went out in the morning and we had to walk down 3 floghts of steps without ANY lightning.
