False advertising. Web site said free breakfast. The only free breakfast that i saw was pastries. To me that dosent constitute as free breakfast. The T.V in my room remote didnt work at first and everything on the tv was in spanish. Not everyone that stays in the hotel speaks/reads spanish.

I’m trying to call the number that is listed on Expedia for the property. It is not accurate after being on hold for eight minutes it disconnects you at arriving at the property. The manager tells me that the proper number is on the card at the desk. I tell him that does mean no good when I live three hours away and cannot contact the property. The property is in desperate need of repair. We had other guests in other rooms. They did not even have a hairdryer so they had to dry their hair over the air conditioner in their room the counters in our room or very old stained and had horrible marks on them. The couch in our room had stains, tears, and paint on them. The coffee table if you want to call it that I think a five year-old could’ve put it together better and I don’t know that I would’ve even set a cup on it. The towels in the bathroom looks like they came from the dollar store. They did not match. We’re very thin and very small. The hallways smelled musty and old. I saw housekeeping’s mop bucket, and it look like the color of coffee and not the nice latte like espresso, black coffee, and she was continuing to floors in the room with it. The manager on properly, he is very rude. There is no staff at night so if your key does not work or you lose it, go sleep in your car. I had tried to call the number on the business card for the hotel in the middle of the night as there were people sleeping outside on the sidewalkand there was no answer and the front desk is locked up.

Only 10 quick minutes away from Mystic Lake Event Center for our event. The room was Hot (mid July) when we 1st arrived and Quickly cooled off with the AC unit. Having a fridge with freezer was important to us... we had some difficulties with it not being truly COLD, but it was more chilled than our cooler until we got the settings right.

I knew I was booking a budget hotel but this place had the highest rating of all the local hotels in the area. I have to admit I was skeptical but reserved it anyway. We got there and our nonsmoking room did not smell terrible with the air on but we had to walk through a smoke filled hallway to get there. The two bath towels were so thin they barely dried us after our shower. one of them was dirty. The shower curtain was also dorty. We had gone out and when we returned and were taking showers we didn’t want to have to get dressed and call the front desk. The room is uniquely furnished with a nice fridge and stove- however no ice bucket, nothing in the cabinets to use on the stove- no silverware, cookware- nothing to clean anything with. It really doesn’t make sense to have the amenities that you can’t use. The bed was not great- but again I wasn’t expecting super comfort. Overall I’d give it a 2 at best. I paid 120.00. The next night it was 49.00- go figure.
Inside of the shower curtain with pink toiletries squirted on it. The hotel doesn’t have pink anything.
The two coffees were both open.
