Terrible.

Can’t say much about the appearance. It’s an older unit but it smells pretty rancid. Carpet could probably use replacing. I’m assuming that’s where most of the foul smell is coming from. First night we stayed at this hotel, I couldn’t sleep well due to me scratching all over my body and so did my wife. Hotel also ran out of body wash. Couldn’t call someone from the reception because they were already close so nobody to call. Had to go out and bought some from the store. In the morning when my wife and I got up, we decided to book a room at a different hotel. We didn’t want to spend our mini vacation being frustrated and unhappy staying at this hotel and be uncomfortable. Management didn’t want to give us any refund when we tried asking for one thru hotels.com customer service. Please stay away from this hotel.
