The front desk staff were shockingly bad. Rude, dismissive, and completely uninterested in helping. Simple questions were met with eye rolls, confusion, or outright attitude. It honestly felt like we were inconveniencing them by existing. No explanations, no apologies, no accountability — just excuses, indifference, and an alarming lack of professionalism. to make matters worse, the hotel has absolutely no active security whatsoever. The combination of no security and a front desk that clearly doesn’t care makes this place feel unsafe and poorly managed.

There was not enough parking spaces. As a woman on her own, I was asked to park over two blocks away and walk back alone at 1:30am - I felt scared to do that.

The shower was verging on dangerous, water went everywhere, and made the floor slippery. Otherwise, a clean room, very comfortable.

The bathroom was gross- the shower room was not cleaned with hair from previous guest all over the shower; grime; shower water flowing out of the shower; the toilet seat broken; broken hanger and clothes from previous guest left in closet; huge stained sheets still used even if cleaned. Extremely gross and will not book again. Seems others have raised the same concerns from other review sites but the hotel does not seem to care as nothing has been done to improve. This is an embarrassment for the Mercure/Accor group and should get the owners to budget more ; review their KPI.
