Couldn’t get the heat to work in our room, asked the front desk about it. Was told that it was probably too cold outside for it to work and just leave the heat on low it will eventually warm up. Well it didn’t. The first night we froze! We ended up unplugging the unit. The next night we plugged it back in and had heat. We also didn’t like that they didn’t touch up our room during our three nights. I finally took the used towels to the front desk to get clean ones. Also the pool is closed and doesn’t look like it’s ever going to open again. We love the tea machine in the lobby and breakfast was okay. We were happy that the handicap room provided a shower seat.

I checked in. Room 227 was filthy. The bathroom was disgusting. There was poop on the toilet seat and urine all over it and the floor. The bed undoubtedly had not been changed from previous occupant. They moved me to room 217. Bathroom was as filthy as 227. 3rd room - marginal but slightly better. I spend about 50-60 nights a year in hotels. I don’t ever give bad reviews. This place is disgusting. If you don’t mind sitting in someone else’s feces on the toilet seat it might be your place thoughvv
