Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
For starters our mini fridge had food left in it from the previous person who stayed which leads me to think what else was skipped cleaning the room before we arrived. The rooms were not refreshed in between days and lobby and pool was a zoo with crazy college kids who were wild and disruptive heard commotion well after listed quiet time! When asked service was fast and polite breakfast and staff we talked to were nice.

Several issues with room, all communicated to staff, zero resolution... deadlock did not work (major safety hazard); shower rod almost coming off of wall, shower curtain only supported at middle, so water literally streamed out of stall onto bathroom floor; exhaust fan in bathroom did not work. Staff was unpleasant, woman at the front desk could care less while checking in, didn't tell me room number or instructions on even how to get to room. And swimming pool far too small for a hotel of this size. Overall, very underwhelming.

Didn’t like the absence of a free breakfast but I guess I misunderstood what was offered. Indoor pool was ice cold and kind of dated looking. I would choose somewhere else more than likely next time
