Arrived late & got a text with our room number & code, walked in on a couple sleeping in our room. Called hotel about 4 times, finally got a hold of someone and they said wrong room so they were gonna text us new room. After 10 minutes of waiting for new room number, never got a text so we called back. They sent our new room number to a different number, told them to send to the one we’re calling off of. Finally got a text with new room number. After 30 mins of being in our room, someone tried opening our door because they also received wrong room number. Felt so unsafe, will never come back. Also had dirty & wet towels in bathroom?

Staff was super nice. But I had a problem with my outlet in the bathroom not working, there was a hole in the wall leading to outside for a pipe going through the room which let in yellow jackets to our room.

The room was nice. Basic amenities. Conveniently located. We wished the window has curtains. People can see us from outside if we have the lights on. Noise level was high. We can hear next door’s tv and people voices.

This was the worse place I stayed. We stayed for 2 nights and both days no hot water. I let them know and they stated was braker. Never got hot water luckily my daughter was staying next door and used her shower. Did not even offer anyone to look at it, or switch us rooms or anything of reimbursement. Then my daughters bed had a insect in it and her boyfriend got bit. I have proof. Will never stay there again. Our room number was 112 not hot water the whole stay. Room 111 had the bug in the bed.
