Worst Experience Ever.
Horrible experience. We clearly had a reservation....The front desk woman was condensending and very rude. Claimed we dosnt have a reservation, even after Hotels.com called to tell her we did. The young man in training there found it as well, butshe had ignored it and given the room away to someone else....Then she swnt the 75 year old couple to a dump motel where they had to climb to the 2nd floor on rickety old stairs.... Hotels.com was able to save the day and put them in a nice Holiday Inn. But--Instead of being in their room at 830 pm it turned into 11pm. I have traveled for work and spent about 750 nights in hotels in my life. I have never encountered such awful service. Never stay here.

Hotel was in the middle of a restoration project so it looked a little rough.My room was nice enough I would say 95% complete, no toilet paper holder or towel hooks and some bare plywood in the bathroom. In general though it was clean and comfortable. I was only there for 12 hours so it suited my purposes well.

This whole property was under construction which was not clearly labeled. The hallway outside of our room was filled with drywall dust. Once we could see our path we quickly noticed that all the hall outside of our room was used to store all of the drywall, mud buckets and tools which we had to step around in order to get access to our door. Once we got in the room we were greeted with a leaky basement smell and damp to the touch sheets. We tried to escape to the pool but my kids were grossed out by all of the scum and hair floating. We would have absolutely left but there weren’t any hotels with vacancy in town due to the car show. We tried to ask about a refund but we’re told we should have known about the construction. Terrible experience and management.

Skip this hotel for now. Try again in a few months
The Quality Inn is under construction. I wish that would have been clear prior to check in. The rooms were half finished. No light fixtures, no towel fixtures in the bathrooms. No dryer, coffee maker or luggage rack. They should have shut down whole rooms while upgrading and open them when ready. But instead, the whole place is under construction at the same time
