Well, let me begin by saying, I travel for work and spend more than 300 nights a year in hotel rooms. I've used Hotels.com many times to my satisfaction; this experience was a horrible stay experience, but an excellent Hotels.com experience. The room appeared clean at first notice, not nice and modern, certainly not a 5 star hotel, but I... More

I must say my experience with this hotel has been very very distasteful!!!!! Not only are the rooms smelly but I have a concern for potential mold as well. I am not a picky person but towels are not changed, paint is bad, beds are bad. The heat is controlled by a digital thermostat which does not go above 80... More

The staff was exceptionally courteous and the hotel was very pleasant. I stayed there for 9 days. I would recommend facing the courtyard. The room is an exceptional value for the money. After my housekeeping day, I returned to find a room so clean that I called the front desk to compliment the housekeeper. The area was convenient, too. I... More

If I could give this place -5 stars, I would. I've stayed many older hotels before, but this place is beyond horrible. Our room was filthy, dilapidated, and eerily covered with the smell of chemical cleaner. The bathroom floor had black and brown grime on the tiles, the tub mat had mold and stains on it, and the sink and... More

We stayed here on 8/31/11. Our stay can best be summed up by the sight that greeted us when we first went to our room: the older lady from the room next door sitting on the pavement, in broad daylight, in her nightie, drinking. (She was joined an hour later by someone else, also drinking, so I guess this is... More

I stayed in a 2-queen bedroom. There was a lot of dirt in several places on the room. There is no daily maid service included in the fee unless you stay for more than 7 days; but you can get more towels or anything you need from the front desk. I wouldn't stay there again. More

Okay, I'll cut right to the chase, my experience with this place was horrible. I read other negative reviews on TripAdvisor, but this was the hotel my company had a corporate rate with, and in order for me to get reimbursement I had to use their hotel. With that said... From the time I checked in this place was nothing... More

We checked into this facility and found that our "No Smoking" room absolutely reeked of cigarette smoke. The manager on duty did not offer to give us another room. We left and checked into another hotel. More

Room was very clean and we had everything we needed. Parking was close by. Hotel was about 15 minutes from the college and very close to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed our stay. Front desk was very helpful at both check in and check out. More
