I was there for only one night. First of all, the GPS shows your hotel on the wrong side of the highway. Not sure this can be fixed. But, I had to call for directions. When I did call, I got Corey. This guy is the best! He helped me in everything I needed to make my short stay as comfortable as possible.

Rooms were fine, breakfast in morning was no more than toast or packaged mini muffins. No continental breakfast as advertised. No milk for kids cereal, smoke alarm went off each time someone made toast. No cream for coffee… it was a total disappointment for those of us who would like to enjoy a piece of fruit or something with some sort of nutritional value. I could keep at it but I won’t. I will not stay here again.

My hotel room had black mold in the shower. I had to tell them it was there. Last night, the bathroom door was stuck and I had to break it down to get out. I let the manager know what happened this morning, so he called the general manager. She refused to speak with me, and then instructed the manager to charge me $150 dollars for the damages. She showed up minutes later and didn't even look at me. She didn't apologize for what happened at all. She treated me like I wasn't there.
