Messed up the reservations, gave a us keys to rooms that already had people in them. Had to beg for bath towels, wash rags and a pillow that wasn't flat and worn out. A couple who was traveling with me was asked to get up in the middle of the night and make their bed so it looked like it... More

I stay here for business. Not necessarily by choice. My stays were generally ...ok... to say the best. But it seems they FINALLY got rid of that horrible manager (I don't recall her name). She was very unresponsive to concerns or complaints and had a general attitude of "I've got your money, now go away.) She would often have rather... More

So my husband and I check as long term residents which translated into their language means "no bedding change, no vacuuming, no toilet paper, soap, anything." Here I am a middle aged woman walking down the hall with no make up and dressed in sweats and I get hit on by men in the hallway. They are either blind and/or... More

Though the girl at the front desk was nice, it was downhill from there. The pool was empty in July, the broken windows were duct taped. The hall smelled. There was a girl either passed out or dead in the parking lot, so we notified front desk. The room door across the hall from us was open when we got... More

AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS!!! We were overcharged for one room supposedly because it came with a continental breakfast. They do not have a continental breakfast at this hotel. After I made the reservation I called and talked to someone at the hotel to confirm that we would have transportation from the hotel to Park and Ride and then... More

We had several items worth several hundred dollars stolen from our room by cleaning staff and a neighbouring guest had his watch go missing. Management took no responsibility, would not properly investigate and then became hostile with us when we reported the theft to police.... More
