Booked and paid for a room with a king bed, Had to call to have someone let us in due to arriving late. Went to my room and had 2 small beds. Office was already locked back up so i just dealt with it. Ended up only being charged for the double beds but its still not what i wanted

Be nice if they would change the towels instead of leaving dirty ones up. Also the ice vending area is sketchy as hell.

Dirty

The room was very dirty. The bedding was filthy and had to be changed, shower was grimy, and it was like the floor had never been swept. The service was fairly quick when new bedding was asked for.

The hotel and room were okay. Breakfast was not much and the room where guests were to eat was dark. There was a television in the dining area. How about turning it on to a news station?! In addition, the desk attendent was not very pleasant. My rating would be "fair."
