2/10 Poor

Terrible Hotel - do not recommend

phone did not work, hotel does not have glass cups, there was a dripping noise all night and I was up from 2am-6am. I told the front desk about all of this and they just nodded their head. They never offered to fix it or to help. It was so bizarre. I never complain about any hotel and know this is not a 5 star resort but it smelled like cigarette smoke, my pillows were dirty. Overall it was terrible . Will never stay here again.

Overpriced for what you get

This place is a dolled up, overpriced HoJo. The flickering light in our bathroom was a metaphor for everything wrong with this hotel. Things were broken - an outlet and a light. The carpet was dingy and looked as though it hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time. The first room they put us in smelled like gas (so we moved, obviously). Our room had 2 queen beds and was quite small - not much room for walking or baggage. AC worked but was loud. Beds were not very comfortable. All in all, the $500+/night (total cost with taxes and fees) was soooo not worth it. Bummer.
