I’m super mad we asked for an extra blanket because the blankets where stained with blood, the extra blanket we got was dirty full of animal hair , I’m allergic to animal hair and I was not able to sleep, I really need help making this right. I’m so disappointed and embarrassed with fiancée. I really want a refund.

No TV all weekend because they were new and something wasn't allowing the remote to connect to the TV. Other than that it was super cheap while still being a decent place to stay.

They did not have a king room, which us what i paid for online. The room was not clean in places. Surfaces had been wiped, but were not clean. We could still see cup stains. The carpet was clean, but the hard floor was not clean.

The hotel did not honor our already paid reservation, they only said “we do not have clean rooms” and denied service. Let’s hope we get our money back

Got the the hotel at 11:30. Told it was just remodel. It was definitely once an old hotel that had been painted over. Shower was nice with body gland shampoo. Bar soap and lotion at the sink outside the shower toilet room. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. Wall Lamps on sides of bed didn’t work and the glass shower door was too small for the shower so water was on the bathroom floor when done. Otherwise the towels were clean and soft. Overall positives: towels, bedding and bed were 5 of 5. New carpet and blackout window coverings clean. Rough Paint job on door frames and doors. Breakfast was carbs overall. Some bananas and apples. Yogurt. Otherwise, carbs galore. Would stay again for the price and pets being welcome for a small fee.

The hotel was OK. It is unfortunate that the lobby area was not stacked with bottled water nor beer in the 2 days that we stayed in the hotel.
