Hotel was just ok. Hotel is old and not updated. Appeared dark and dreary. Expected nicer hotel with the price we paid for two nights. Staff was friendly.

My first impression was not good, but at checkout the staff turned that around. She listened to my problems and fixed what she could and ensured what she couldnt right then would be looked into. The guy at check in was def not friendly as check out. He failed to infform us of ANY extra info like wifi, breakfast, that the pool was freezing cold, but at least they had someone there to check us in I guess.

If you’re wanting to stay here for the indoor pool, just be warned that the pool is freezing and not headed during the winter months. The ceiling in our room looked like there was water damage and the water pressure in the shower was weak.

Serious cleanliness issues
This place would be a LOT better if they just implemented some sanitation standards. No one is checking these rooms after housekeeping “cleans”. I originally got a room that smelled badly of smoke and the front desk attendant seemed a little put out needing to switch my room so I decided to just deal with the pubic hairs and used shower products. The remote control looked and felt like it had never been sanitized. DONT even get me started on the pool! I was left with a waxy film in my hair AFTER washing it because of how gross the pool was. The staff in the building were very friendly, for the most part, and the breakfast was decent. Just clean the place properly, at the very least!

Ellen, I do apologize that we did not meet your expectations on your resent stay. At the time of your stay the hotel was very busy at the pool area, and I assure you that it was treated and the proper ratings were documented. With heavy swimmers at times it is a struggle. I hope that you will give us another chance to prove we are much better then your experience.
