First room smelled heavily of smoke even though this was a “smoke free” property. Second room had not been prepared for guests and the third room the lamp was broken and the socket and bulb were hangout. I carried it down to the front desk and she got another lamp and brought it to the room. She hooked it up and it worked. The bed was the best attribute of this property.

Overall, the stay was ok. Some of the staff wasn't so friendly. The room was ok, it did have a musty/stuffiness to it. The beds are HARD, just an fyi. It was clean-ish. We did have to get towels and toilet paper from the front because it wasn't stocked. Semi-quiet, our last night it was a bit noisey, but nothing major. My family and I were disappointed in the breakfast. There was really nothing to it. Pancakes and waffles you cook yourself. Cereal and oatmeal. That was all. So we opted to find food some place else. (Shout out to Mabel's Kitchen)

Property is in the process of being updated. We have stayed here before. Problem is the new updates includes beds that are so high we had trouble getting in bed. They were above my waist. It became a topic of discussion at breakfast with other guests as to how we got into the beds. The girl that works at 8pm told us that she could not get us towel, pillows or clean pillowcases as she was not allowed in the linen closet and did not have a key. She told us to come back at 11pm. We dont stay up until 11pm. WTH
