I booked this hotel for 3 reasons…amenities, location & price. Location was good. Price was alright until after checking in, amenities were falsely advertised. Explanation is simple, pool & hot tub were not working, had not been working for quite some time and no mention upon checkin. Breakfast was told 6:30-10, but this is only for weekends, we did go at 9am there was no bread, bagel or any type of pastry to be toasted, scrambled eggs looked uncooked, sausage patties appeared uncooked therefore the lineup for waffles was very long. I will not recommend this hotel now will I ever stay here again. The corners of the room had not been vacuumed in months it was unclean.

When we pulled up there was an incident next door at the liquor store and the police were there. Very outdated building. I was scared the elevator was going to quit. I could hear everything through the walls so I was up all night. There was mold on the ceiling. And the hotel has to know it's a problem since there was a dehumidifier in the room. Torn curtains, hole in the sheets, rust, dirt, spiderwebs, dirty couch.
