Kathy

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The lobby has a very strong grease smell from the restaurant. It's nauseating. The air conditioner in the roomwould not work in auto mode. I had to keep turning the fan on and off because it would get really cold then warm up again. I didn't realize this until I had already gone to bed. Wasn't good in the middle of the night to have to keep adjusting it. The bathroom door is a slider and doesn't close properly. It also had water damage and peeling paint on the bottom. The bathroom sink had a long crack in it. Didn't use the shower, but the water pressure on the sink was not great so I'm assuming the shower would be the same pressure. One good thing is the bed was comfortable and the front desk and bar staff were very nice. I only stayed one night.
