Let me start by saying we have stayed here before and while it isnt the best hotel is was fine for a night. This stay was horrendous. There were guests lighting off roman candles and fireworks in the parking lot. The staff did nothing about it- one just got in her car and left. I shouls have gone back in and asked for a refund but we were tired and they seemed to have stopped. Fasts forward to 2am, when I felt something touch my foot. The guest before us had left uneaten food (pepperoni to be exact) and dirty napkins in our bed. It was absolutely disgusting. We will not be back.
