There must have been someone with the same name as me and they were checked in under our reservation. The first staff member we spoke to was very condescending and when we called her out, she became mean and rude. The second person we dealt with was very nice, helpful, and understanding.

My sincere apologies for the confusion with the reservations, and I'm sorry to hear that you felt you were treated poorly as that is not a normal occurrence here. Our staff tries very hard to accommodate all requests and fix anything that may make your stay unpleasant. I do hope that you will give us another try here in the future. Until then, safe travels.

Stay elsewhere
We booked 3 rooms for 2 nights and unless you ask for room to be cleaned in between nights they will not do it. Hotel is dirty rundown you can hear everything around you. Breakfast was not the usual for This chain. Carpet was dirty and dingy bathroom had mold behind the dated wallpaper. Sorry never at this location again

Not so great
They didn't replenish our coffee supplies for the next day (nor any room service for that matter), the bathroom fan didn't work, the desk chair wouldn't stay elevated, and the bathroom door wouldn't stay open. Also, the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night for no reason and we all had to be evacuated and sit in our running cars to stay warm. No explanation, no apologies, and no comp for our inconvenience.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us. We appreciate the feedback. I am so sorry that the fire alarms went off during your stay with us. Unfortunately, the air compressor that keeps the sprinkler system dry, stopped working and therefore set off the alarms. Luckily there was no fire involved and no one was in danger. We appreciate you following the safety precautions and allowing the fire department to do their job. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. We hope that you will choose to stay with us again in the future. Until then, safe travels.

Dated and crumbling.
It was quiet. The food was standard. The building was clean. The staff were kind and helpful. As for the building itself, it seems to be aging. One of the curtains was missing from the window. The plaster was crumbling in certain areas. The room design was very utilitarian with no aesthetics and what appeared to be eclectic arrangement other than the central location of the bed.

All good, however, and I think this is a matter among all hotels, carpets, you need to take better care of carpets; after walking barefoot on the carpet my feet start itching and burning.

Plumbing was in poor state of repair. The sink faucet was leaking. Room 305 The air conditioner didn't work correctly. The thermostat was set on 60 degrees and the unit only came on maybe once an hour. The room temperature had to be in the 80s. Poor sleeping environment. I covered with a sheet only and still sweat the bed wet.
