The front desk was fast, nice and professional. The bar staff was rude and unprofessional. Wanted to visit with other guests but was told to leave area in case someone wanted to eat or order a drink. The only action going on was employees watching the end of Monday night football loudly. There’s no real place for guest to sit and visit with each other.

We booked a suite in February and when we got there to check in the Hotel said Expedia over booked so they did not have the room we actually paid for. They really did not care and said they only had a double bed or a standard king which one did we want instead. It was my husbands birthday and it was suppose to ne a special weekend and it was disappointing because we got a suite to be able to have friends over and we were not able to celebrate.

Room was very clean and nice. WiFi that night was very slow I couldn’t log in and do my work. It was working next morning. When I showered that night water was coming out of bath spout and shower head. I realized following day you must pull lever up first then turn on water. Walls are so thin u can hear everything.

I would either like a refund or a discount. Friday night there was a dog who howled and whined until 11pm. I called and complained and nothing was done. I went down to the lobby and nothing was done. The walls are also thin so we could here everyone running down the hallways. Saturday, in the middle of the afternoon the dog was howling and whining again. I was super frustrated. My daughter was here for a swim meet and was unable to get adequate rest due to the issues. I also think $16 for the breakfast was a bit high for what was provided. I don’t think I will be staying at this hotel again.
