Not what I hoped for

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Oct 2023
We stayed at this hotel during Univ of Delawares homecoming weekend. The front desk staff were very professional and courteous. The rooms were clean. But, light bulbs were missing from the desk lamp and wall sconces. The glass door in the shower had no lock or catch to keep it closed. The toilet seat was not screwed on and for some reason stayed wet... The continental breakfast was horrible. Very limited choices.

The property is run down. Security lock on the door was broken. Rooms on main floor aren’t carpeted. Making it a noisy floor. We stayed there during parents and paid close to $800 for two nights for a dump. I wouldn’t stay there again. Breakfast was basically all carbs. On a positive note the staff was very respectful and accommodating.

The shower in room 308 is in poor repair. Most of the seal around the shower door is missing, so when you step out there is a small lake on the floor to greet you. It took 2 towels to dry up the water. Rings around the sprinklers are missing.
The towel exchange is unreasonable. They are only supposed to change them every three days. But with the leaking shower, this will not do.
Not a fan of the place and I wouldn't book here again unless I wanted to see a Blue Hen's game. Perfect location to walk to the stadium.

Hi jduffy204766,


Your review and rating of our hotel mean a lot to us, and we thank you for taking the time to share this experience. On behalf of our entire team, I would like to apologize for failing to exceed your expectations. I want to apologize for the noises that disturb your rest. All front desk clerks are instructed and trained on how to handle these types of issues and I'm very sorry they failed to correct this problem for you. We continually strive to ensure that our rooms smell fresh and clean without the unpleasant odor at our rooms. If you are unsatisfied with your room, we always try to relocate should the rooms be available. We are sorry that circumstances prevented you from asking for another room or letting us know that you were not happy with your accommodations as we certainly would do everything possible to correct the matter. We hope that you will give us another opportunity to exceed your expectations should your travels bring you back to our area.
