We stay for Valentine’s Day. The room was very clean. We didn’t hear anyone else. The jet tub water didn’t have hot water for long enough. But bring as it was Valentine’s Day I hope it’s just because a lot of people were using their tubs too haha. The breakfast was just Frosted Flakes or raisin brand, bagels, toast, and a couple other bakery items. Our room had a fridge and microwave which was nice.
Clean room, good amenities near stores and restaurants.

There was bugs floating in the apple juice
Spider, crawling on the counter
Little bugs on the bed, the thin blanket that was supposed to be on the bed very thin had a bunch of holes in. It was really not that clean.
The sink was stained. Water in the shower did not want to shut off, kept dripping all night.
I stayed here before. I may not stay here again.

The rooms are old and the mattresses probably need to be replaced. They price is good, the location is great, the tubs are huge and they have jets. They have smoking and non-smoking rooms. I would probably stay there again.

It is how the staff there at the Front Desk doesn’t know how to talk to people then on top of that when you booked a hotel room they should tell you upfront that there is a 50$ towards the room after you paid for the home
