Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The systems were down and it took a long time to check in. There was no reassurance by the staff at the front desk that we would even get a room. They nonchalantly said we can't check you in and we don't know how long it will take. Our hotel room door would not completely shut. The carpet seemed moist and humid. We ran out of hot water. The picture on the TV was dark. The breakfast was a rip off. I paid 12.99 for cold eggs and bland boiled potatoes. Pancakes and french toast would have been extra. They were out of orange juice, but offered to let me buy a bottle for 2.00. There was no water to drink. I don't recommend this hotel.

We had a three night stay, our first morning we thought we would relax and make coffee in our room. The coffee machine would not work very dissipated. We let the staff know, some one was going to check , we’ll long story short we could not have any coffee unless we went downstairs very disappointed.
