We were running late because of being from out of town and they we going to cancel our rooms if we were after 9 pm. Second only a hot dog stand after 9, no room service. For wanting us to spend 239 a night its a joke.

I waited 2 1/2 hours to check in because the key cards couldn't be made. Finally had to cancel and go to another hotel. The next morning I had a message on my phone from 10:50 p.m. saying the key cards still wouldn't work, but security could escort to rooms, but you couldn't leave unless you had somebody to let you back in. The hotel said that I would get a full refund, but since it was through Expedia I'm not sure. Expedia has NO WAY on their website to contact customer service in any way. Terrible experience all around. The front desk staff at the hotel were all very kind and apologetic.

The smoke was terrible! Hair and dirt in all the corners of the bathroom and blood on the carpet. Elevators were rickety and filthy. Most likely not staying there again.
