This is a great hotel

So for some reason, I guess the service is not exactly what is cracked up to be, but as far as the amenities and the hotel itself, it’s great I had always had to ask for towels or sheets and toilet paper because we didn’t get any service. No, no one clean our room. I cleaned my room.now I’m checking out and after been here exactly a week I actually take that back the second day I asked for no service and just towels maybe they assumed that I wasn’t gonna want service the rest of the time so I actually went to the office and asked for service. Now it’s 4 days since then with no service but I think if they get the housekeeping on task and on point then they will do good and may turn around the whole black cloud that has hung over this property for years. With the blue heads and other riff raff

Had an issue with one of the bathrooms and I was kindly switched to another room by the front desk. No other issues besides that and everything else went smoothly. I would go back just need to check the bathroom cleaning quality next time :)
