My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, though clean and spacious, had some issues like old, dry blankets and a strange smoke smell. The service was a mixed bag with some great moments and some rudeness. The location was convenient but a bit sketchy. I found the dining options quite limited, but the price was reasonable. The facilities were acceptable, but not outstanding.

Upon arrival at 3:30 pm, my stay at the hotel had some drawbacks with unupdated rooms from the '50s and disturbances from noisy guests in the halls and adjoining rooms. I encountered unauthorized charges and plan to contact my bank and the BBB. On the positive side, the front desk staff, Ofelia and Joyce, were pleasant and apologized for issues during my stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was convenient with attractions within walking distance, the rooms had several disappointing issues such as cigarette burns, odors, and leaks. The lack of essential appliances like a microwave and refrigerator was a letdown for me and my kids.

My experience at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was convenient, right off the exit and close to many businesses, making it easy to access local attractions. The service was a bit of a rollercoaster with some staff being friendly and accommodating, while others were rude and unhelpful. The rooms, with their unpleasant smell and various issues like old blankets and broken lamps, left much to be desired. The dining options were limited, with basic breakfast fare available in the lobby, and the facilities were average at best.

The hotel has a great location just off I95, with restaurants nearby. The rooms are comfortable, but some issues with odor were noticeable. The service was friendly and helpful, but the lack of vending machines is inconvenient. Breakfast was satisfactory, including a tasty Pork Belly dish.

My stay at the hotel was a nightmare. The rooms were in terrible condition with moldy ceilings, burned comforters, and a strong smell of smoke. The cleaning staff lacked proper training and were rude. The location was sketchy and definitely not up to standard. I had to leave the hotel at 4 am because it was just too distressing to stay.

The hotel is conveniently located close to many businesses and right off the highway exit, offering a mix of positive and negative experiences. The rooms, though initially not well-cleaned and took a while to warm up, offered decent comfort for the internet price we booked. The service was a mix of pleasant and forgetful moments, with staff being nice but not very attentive. The location was favorable for access to eateries and the highway but fell short with some cleanliness issues like dirty walls in the bathroom. The dining options were limited, with only basic breakfast offerings and no on-site dinner. The facilities had both highs and lows, with easy access to a pool and hot tub but an old, smelly elevator detracting from the experience.

Upon arrival, the state of the rooms was truly appalling, and a room change was necessary due to the lack of a clothes hanging area and various maintenance issues.

The dining experience lacked variety despite some regional products being available.
