SUZANNE

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
It was necessary to ask 3 times for toilet paper. Even then, the room was not serviced with coffee replacements or trash emptied. Hotel was advertised as having a bar and restaurant, neither of which is true. They have a fair breakfast, but no restaurant for other meals or a bar. Very disappointed in this misrepresentation as it caused extra stress finding meals within walking distance for two seniors.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a terrible experience at this hotel. Over a 4-night stay, the bed sheets were never changed, and there was no room cleaning at all — not even basic housekeeping in the morning. Towels were not replaced, and despite requesting it, toilet tissue was never provided on the third day. The room lacked even a basic telephone, making communication with the front desk difficult. To make matters worse, the receptionist was rude and unhelpful when we raised these issues. Overall, a very poor experience. I would not recommend staying here.

Nice staff. The room cleanliness isn’t horrible, but it also isn’t the best. There is a pretty consistent ticking noise that in the room. The walls are also pretty thin. Those 2 things prevented me from having a good night sleep.
