The hotel is undergoing renovations so parts of the room are updated and other parts are old. It seems like it will be much nicer when completed. There are a lot of storage containers in the parking lot and limited parking is available. There were ants all over our air conditioner unit in the room.

Very sloppy welcome at the front desk with young lady yawning and not being professional during check in. There was construction, so no working gym and both my husband and my son wanted to workout inside due to weather conditions, we were not made aware of this when researching the hotel.

At the time of our arrival the lobby and other areas of the hotel were undergoing renovations. This created disturbing noise and areas of the hotel were not as clean as I assume they otherwise would have been. The pool area was also surrounded by a dumpster and several shipping containers which were all actively engaged in construction activities. All of this was very disruptive to our stay.

When I arrived, the front desk advisor was very rude argumentative I believe her name was Lori. She told me over the phone that I can do early check-in. When I arrive. She said I never said that to you when we got into the room the room had an infestation of ladybugs all over the wall. There was dead bugs on the computer desk. The bathroom was filthy. The elevators were nasty. One of the elevators were broken and working, so you have to use another elevator another entryway. The elevator had a piece of tape over floor four button. There was mold inside the elevator, and it looked like it was not cleaned in a long time. The sheets on the bed were nasty. The floor was not vacuumed.

Have a brought my animals with me, I would have been asked to leave because my dogs would not be quiet with all the noise next door. At 10 pm start smelling weed and my husband and I do not smoke. The smell lasted over an hour.

Location is great. Room was fine. Staff friendly. Property appeared to be making improvements to the outside. Bathroom is tiny. Reach over the toilet to close the bathroom door in order to get into the shower is not ideal. Toilet has no seat lid to ensure personal items and towels don’t fall into the toilet.

It was reasonably clean. Shower could have been cleaner. First floor room (138) was by the pool. I don’t recommend that. A LOT of exterior noise. Room Nextdoor was very loud as well. Could hear the TV literally all night long straight through until the morning. The smell of bacon wafting through your room wasn’t great either. I assume from their comp breakfast prep. The worst part was housekeeping knocking at our door and immediately opening it 7:42 am on a Sunday morning and again at 10:00.

This hotel isn’t the worst, but it’s definitely not the best either. Positives are a very friendly and helpful staff, pretty good breakfast, and a good location. Negatives for us were a room that smelled musty, only a couple of working outlets in the room, and it was very noisy (mechanical noise all night). We are all sound sleepers, so the noise didn’t really bother us, but it would be bad if you are a light sleeper.

Property under construction so property and surrounding area got 3 stars. Front desk staff amazing. Poor review comes from housekeeping staff. Came back to room to find “do not disturb sign that was on door in room on floor”. Room door propped open, along with every room door on floor, occupied or not. Housekeeping cart in site but no staff nearby or in site. We were staying another nite and did not need service. Upon returning, closing room door and rehanging do not disturb sign outside door, housekeeping entered room without knocking. I was coming out of bathroom in towel, daughter grabbed bathroom door closed as she was doing hair in mirror in room to stop me from exposing myself to staff and whomever could have been in hallway. Did put a complaint in with front desk who apologized for staff. Said she would let mgmt know of issues. Will rethink any future stays. Again, I must say front end staff was great. Hotel clean. If not for housekeeping would have gotten 5 stars.
