Quannah, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not much, but it will get it done.

The air conditioning did not work. The TV is the size of a IPad and the restroom is a tight squeeze. Besides that the room was clean. It was pretty quiet all night.
Myra, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

My experience at this hotel was very disappointing. From the first night, it was impossible to rest due to constant noise, and the curtains did not block out the light, making it very difficult to sleep properly. We traveled during winter, with snow, and the heater took far too long to start working, which made the stay very uncomfortable, especially at night. There were five of us staying for four nights and five days, and we were provided with only one roll of toilet paper, which is completely unacceptable. Additionally, there was no customer service at all: the keys were left in a lockbox, and we never had any contact with anyone to address or resolve the issues. I would not recommend this place. The experience was far below expectations.
