    I initially was put in a room that had a tub faucet that would not shut off once I turned it on there was no phone in the room couldn’t get the refrigerator door open, but they did switch me to another room and it was much better

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Room was clean, but the floor could use more. The wifi barely works, and laptop could not stay connected to internet. When asking the front desk was told that i was connecting to the wrong wifi, and the password originally provided with room key was wrong.

    The property itself is very dated, but other than that things worked adequately

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Not much. Guy at the front desk was helpful. No extra toilet paper, not enough towels for 4 people, very small room, continental breakfast very lacking.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    All was good, could be better cleaning the bathroom more but it was okay.

    I would stay here again but I am very low maintenance. It was clean and quite the bed was fine, but the base of the bed was tin and made noise. The TV wasn't hooked up so I had to figure that out and one of the bedside lights and outlets didn't work. The waffle at breakfast was really good but the bagels only flavor had raisons.

    The room was clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was in need of an upgrade. The shower head was too low, the counter too small, and the tub was worn, pitted, and looked dirty. The staff was lovely and very helpful.
