Got in the room it was freezing cold. Turned on the one and only heater, took 2 hours to be comfortable. The windows don’t close properly so cold air comes in. Two double beds, not queen. The place is run down but they renovated the bathroom.

Didnt like hot tub closed at 9:30 due to shift workers. Put them on the outside rather than whete atrium is then so other guests can enjoy amenities. I had to get 3 sets of key cards as my room would not let me in. Otherwise ok place for price.

Hotel is old, but functional. Front desk staff was very good. Rooms - mattress was good, pillows not so much. TV was quite bad - small, not hi-def, minimal channels. The bathroom was fine. Coffee maker and amenities were good.

The exercise room had 3 pieces of equipment. One was missing a piece so it couldnt be used unless you were 6'4". Another piece didn't work. Also the hot tub didn't work. They shouldnt advertise as having these facilities.

Rooms are mediocre. Pet rooms can use an air freshener. Beds need an upgrade as they sag. Not the same quality as we are used to with other sandmans we have stayed in. When we let the front desk know about the smell and the sagging bed he completley ignored it.
