Was not happy that the website states there are coffee makers in the rooms. THERE ARE NOT! I purposely changed to this hotel from another for that reason! I also called about check in times because we were arriving with a dog. Was told that everything was good and we could even pay to check in early if we choose to. We arrived right at 3:00 check in time, only to be told to go have some lunch because the rooms would not be ready for a few hours. We had a dog with us, not many options to go for lunch for a few hours. The hotel stated that they were understaffed and fully booked! This was not what I wanted to hear after drivin 3 hours to get into my hotel.

There was no bar as stated, the restaurant was breakfast only and it was cereal, toast, coffee and a pancake machine that had a sign “do not touch” on it. The headboard of the bed looked like a bunch of cats hat dug their claws in it and scratched the fake leather all up. There was no guide to figure out tv channels.

Disappointed

The hotel was next to the interstate with the doors and windows facing the interstate. The road noise was so load I could barely sleep. Looked like there were mold spots in the ceiling, especially in the bathroom. Also, looked like there might have been human stains on some of the furniture. The staff was friendly and fast while checking in and out. There were a lot reviews that basically said the place was great. I have been in a lot nicer hotels for the same price point that I paid.

There was mold in the shower. The crown molding on the base boards was missing pieces. There was kleenex is the peep hole to cover it since it was broken. There was a mildew smell that would not go away even after it was aired out. I would give this stay at 1/10. This was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. And for almost $200 a night, we will never stay there again or recommend it.

I reserved a pool side room. Arrived at 16:30, was told room wasn't ready/clean. Left for dinner, came back at 18:00 & was given keys to "my" room. Opened the door only to be greeted by another couple. They ultimately gave me another down graded room.
