It was very nice even with construction
James, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I was there for 3 days, in room 1118 there were some small cockroaches, in the bathroom, on the floor of the room. During this period the room was not cleaned... The hotel is excellent. I noticed that they are undergoing renovations, everything should be better.

Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible experience.

The entire hotel is under construction, the rooms are dirty and full of cockroaches. The toilet overflowed when we flushed it. The bed was full of bedbugs. There was no staff in the lobby when we arrived. The pool, restaurant, and gym were closed. We had to leave the hotel in the middle of the night and go somewhere else. They should close it down.

alton, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

I booked a one night stay February 14-15 and around 4 in the morning I couldn’t get into my room because the key card wasn’t working and no staff was there to reset it I was up for almost an hour not being able to get into room and ended having to stay at the friends so the hotel was a waste. There should be someone there 24 hours, hotel was a waste.
