Bed bugs in the room. Got bitten all over. Complained to the office and they didn’t seem to care. Asked for a refund and are not really interested in helping. Left at around midnight and went to get another hotel.

Covers were dirty, not just stains but some crusty white stuff ( I don’t want to know what that was) front desk attendant was rude and senile, we didn’t seem to know how to answer any of my questions. Outdated rooms with furniture that looks like it’s from your great grandmothers basement. I wouldn’t expect too much but for very high prices this was inexcusable. No one supervised the front area so anyone at anytime can walk in and just go up the elevator or through the hotel. Plus if you’re looking for staff, good luck and the front desk bell doesn’t work because it’s strewed down so you cannot tap it. The bananas for breakfast were brown and all bruised and that was the only option and it’s paired with box eggs and greasy sausage and that’s your only option outside of cereal and making a waffle. Parking is limited and the location is directly off of the highway so it’s hard to exit the hotel onto the main road. People were in the hallway talking very loud at night and during the morning. I wish the staff would ensure visitors weren’t sitting around in the hallway as a hangout spot.

The room had an unpleasant honor. The tv,microwave and fridge atopped working. I reported it to the person at the front desk. I returned hours later and it still did not work. The bathroom was recently renovated. The remainder of the room was very worn and tired. Never again!
