The minute you get off the elevator to the second floor all you smell is wet carpet. All the way down the hall and it’s stronger in the room. They need to clean the ac units. The sofa in the room was damp. And the bed mas so hard. Went to breakfast at 7:30 and the only hot breakfast was the coffee. Will not recommend.

Walked into the lobby to the smell of Marijuana which seemed a bit odd. When i checked in the lady was not really friendly. All she said was we have room 116 for you, but the Tv is broke. I asked if there was another room she just said no and walked away. Went to park my car and there were only about 10 cars in the parking lot. Did not seem like the hotel was full. Got to the room and it had stuff all over the floor and smelled like cigarette smoke and mildew. As stated the TV was broke and something under the bathroom sink was broken with screws sticking out and the toilet had problems flushing. I probably should have left but just got in from driving about 14 hours and was too tired to book another place. DONYOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE. THERE ARE PLANTY OF NICER PLACES REALLY CLOSE TO THIS ONE!!!

The lobby looks nothing like the picture advertised. The tub had some kind of stain on it. It looked like mold was part of the porcelain in the tub. The carpet was soaked by the air conditioner because it was leaking. The room did not seem to have been cleaned well because a used plastic fork was found under the corner of one of the beds. We stayed for one night, just to rest during a three day road trip. We'd already been traveling all day and were leaving early in the morning. I would have found another hotel if we were staying longer. The location was convenient, next to the interstate and several restaurant selections within walking distance. The customer service representative who checked us in was very friendly. Other than that, it was kind of terrible.

Running the Halls
The hotel property was nice. The room was fine and the location was close to where my event was held. Only thing is at 11 p.m. the family on my floor decided to run the halls and scream and holler. This went on for about half an hour before the local police were called to confront the family with out of control kids. It amazes me how parents are so ignorant to the surroundings and allow their children to act as if they are outdoors.

Not excellent
Water pressure was extremely high in the sink which lead to water spills. The toilet seat was pitted and looked like needed to be replaced. The HVAC system was musty and room had a slight odor. I don’t understand how hotels.com ratings were excellent for this hotel. I find the hotels.com ratings unreliable.
