The hotel is being renovated, so I am very understanding of that. However, our room had a roach near the microwave. Microwave was filthy, old cracked/ rusted refrigerator, bed not comfortable- I could feel the springs. The AC had duct tape all around it and I had to turn it to 60 to even feel it. Breakfast was “ok”, but they do offer a shuttle service so I guess that’s a plus. Won’t be staying again.
Microwave is dirty
Duct tape on the filthy AC unit that barely worked

There were places ro eat around here witjin walking distance. The bathroom of the room that we stayed in overflowed when we took a shower. We were able to get anothwr room, but no one on staff even apologized. The pool was out in the middle of the front of the building. The hallways smelled of paint, so you knew they were upgrading many places.

Layovers suck

Picked this hotel because of airport shuttle after flight being canceled until the next day. The shuttle quits at 5p but didn’t show that on site I was on. While at the hotel the power went off and on from 11:30pm until we checked out the next morning. Smoke detector, microwave beeping every 45 seconds. No lights except in entry and bathroom and then had to carry luggage down the stairs because elevators didn’t work without electricity. No breakfast because of electricity being out.
