NYE 2024

My fiancé and I stayed for New Year’s Eve. They need updating. The wall paper is peeling, the bathroom had no heat and smelled of marijuana. The bed sheets had a small stain on them. On a good note, the Bourbon Bar was nice and the hotel also charged my Tesla. Overall I would give them a 7.5. Definitely not an 8.8 which is what the rating was on Hotels.com.

Pictures look nice but it’s old and not clean

The room was ok. The bath room was not clean and had mold on the tub and broken/water damaged wall paper. The carpet was dirty. Pillow covers were ok but the pillows smell. The counter did not tell me that the room cleaning is up on request. I did not have a clean room for three days until I found out.
