It was very nice even with construction
James, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I was there for 3 days, in room 1118 there were some small cockroaches, in the bathroom, on the floor of the room. During this period the room was not cleaned... The hotel is excellent. I noticed that they are undergoing renovations, everything should be better.

Horrible customer service. Under construction, no amenities and still a resort fee. Never again
Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible experience.

The entire hotel is under construction, the rooms are dirty and full of cockroaches. The toilet overflowed when we flushed it. The bed was full of bedbugs. There was no staff in the lobby when we arrived. The pool, restaurant, and gym were closed. We had to leave the hotel in the middle of the night and go somewhere else. They should close it down.

Great crew
Roberto, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

I booked a one night stay February 14-15 and around 4 in the morning I couldn’t get into my room because the key card wasn’t working and no staff was there to reset it I was up for almost an hour not being able to get into room and ended having to stay at the friends so the hotel was a waste. There should be someone there 24 hours, hotel was a waste.

alton, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Reasonable price

Roaches throughout the room No towels available Beds outdated and squeaky
Lashika, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Absolutely horrible. I also tired to get a refund to go stay somewhere else because our hotel room was disgustingly dirty. There were no sheets or blankets on the bed. The staff behind the counter said I would have to contact the manager the next day to file a complaint.
Danyelle, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible experience

Toilet bowl was not working, I went to the front desk. They had no one to come out to fix the toilet bowl issue. I asked for a bucket to be able to flush the toilet. A while later The smoke alarm kept beeping. They had no maintenance person available. They had no other room to put us in.
