Room with outside entrance- lot/homes across street attracted people all night arguing, loud talking. We felt unsafe and thought extra security locks on outside doors would be a good idea

I did not see the option of being put in the basement floor of a building 2 doors away from the main hotel. Clearly the pictures on your Expedia website were old.

I was given a room which was already occupied by someone else which was really unsafe. And the next room I was given was filthy, had a bad stench and a white powder like flakes all over the side table. NEVER AGAIN!

The room was absolutely nothing like the pictures. It was extremely tiny, hard to move around in the room. Carpet stained, dirty interior, shower disgusting, breakfast bread products horrible. The furniture in the room and dining area were dirty. Mostly upset because the room was so small and very dirty. Cracks me up they leave an envelope in the room to leave a tip for housekeeping! It was disgusting dirty!

The bedspread had not been cleaned for a long time. It was very dirty with hair and stains and was disgusting. The tub/shower had mold all over the caulking and looked terrible. The (2) heat registers never came on even if thermostat turned up to 75. Room stayed around 66-67. Had to get key recoded every day of stay (3 times) to get it to work. 2 star property for sure. Front desk staff very nice, rate was very good for area. Location was great.
