Barriers in Wheelchair Accessible Room

Shelf for towels directly above grab bar, making it unusable. Light switches on most lamps unreachable. Coffee maker on top shelf of a cabinet and unreachable as well. Bed height was good - not too high. Had very few towels.

The stay was just fine. I do wish it had been a little updated. It was a little over-priced for the condition. It was mostly clean, however. Probably could've been a little cleaner. Otherwise the staff was nice and the location was good. The breakfast was also REALLY good. I stayed two days, and it was slightly different each day, which was cool. Coffee bar was good, too.

Our room smelled like a sweaty sock and there was hair stuck to the bathroom walls that clearly was not ours. The first night there was a drunken irate man shocking obscenities at the top of his lungs for HOURS and staff did nothing. I called the front desk multiple times with no answer and later we were told they couldn’t do anything for us bc we booked through Expedia. So I paid money for somewhere to sleep and couldn’t actually sleep. On top of that my children were woken up to F bombs being thrown. Ridiculous.
