At first glance this property looked very nice. At a closer look we noticed the shower was old and dirty. It didn’t look like it has been thoroughly cleaned in months. There were other items that were worn also, but that was nothing compared to the raging, screaming brawl that broke out at 12:30 am on our floor. It was a group of very loud, angry, screaming women and it just got worse by the minute. We were afraid to open our door!. Finally we called the front desk and told them. The person said a security guard would be up asap (they shared him with the Sheraton down the street!) The screaming continued for another 20 minutes. I called again and asked her-begged her-to please send up a security guard or call the police. She said that he had just left to come up and he actually did. It was finally quiet- for about 3 minutes until we heard the screaming start back up again outside our window!!! So after waiting a few minutes with no change I called the desk a third time to report the fighting in the front of the hotel (I couldn’t understand why the front desk didn’t notice) finally someone went out and told them to stop. It was now well after 1:00 am!!!! Then I spent another hour trying to fall back to sleep. It was truly the worst hotel stay I have ever had. The security there as well as the front desk need to up their game. We paid good money for a good nights sleep and absolutely did not get that due to their neglecting their duties to their guests.

The elevator was always dirty and one day even had pet urine that was being tracked everywhere. The bathtub had mold growing around the edges. The back doors to parking area had been taped to allow anyone to enter. Staff was not very friendly upon arrival. However the breakfast was very good with a wide variety to choose from.

Only had one elevator working. Light bulbs missing and replacements didn’t work. Low water pressure. Bathroom fan squealed while in use. Mold in the bathtub caulking. Staff was great and it was located near shopping and restaurants.

The property was in a nice, as well as a convenient location. The staff was mediocre. There were two elevators, one was broken so wait times were long. The bathroom in our room was moldy. The rest of the room was clean.
