Our room had no AC that was working, but the staff kindly switched us to a different room which was much better. However, there was a group of us that came, altogether we got three rooms. My friends room had chunks of the carpet missing, a hole in the bathroom door, fridge didn’t work, tissue paper shoved in the door peep hole, and stained bedsheets. The AC unit had black mold on it. We witnessed several prostitutes on the property and everything that played out there.

Our stay at this location, Huntington WV for 3 nights was absolutely horrible. The shower was nasty, the bedroom floor was not vacuumed, there was no house keeping to pick up your daily garbage, bring clean towels or to make sure that you had toilet paper. Our refrigerator did not work, they then replaced it with another one that also did not work Only one ice maker in working condition in the entire hotel. Safety at this hotel is a joke!! Every exit door was walk in ready WITHOUT your room key. Meaning, ANYONE could walk into the hotel through any door, whether their a guest or not!

I contacted the facility about 12:00 PM prior to my arrival yesterday stating that I will be running late and not arriving until after 7 o’clock. I was told not to worry, my room would be available. When I arrived at 8:20, Carolyn, I believe it’s her name, informed me that my reservations were canceled by the hotel. She stated that Expedia had overbooked the facility, and they did not have a room for me. I asked for a suggestion for a place to go and I was provided absolutely no information other than to call Expedia. Fortunately, another clerk who was just about to go home did some trouble shooting found a room that was listed as blocked but could be used. So I was able to get a room. I was totally dissatisfied with the one clerks lack of concern about the failed reservation. She said she tried to call me, but I received no call and she again blamed Expedia. I guess the lack of concern by the one clerk is typical for customer service today. Someone needs to look into this arbitrary cancellation and resolve it. Especially since I called ahead and informed this facility I would be late. No one, after a long hard day of traveling should be met with such lack of concern by agents of the facility. .

We were given a pet friendly room and we didn't have a pet and were not asked if we had a pet. We were concerned about the funny smell of the room. We didn't say anything. The next morning when we were checking out she asked if we had a pet and said that the room was for people with pets. We should have been asked that at check in. Maybe we would have had a room that didn't smell.

Oh, where do I begin? Check in itself was a rough experience. We understand they have new systems and the staff needs time to learn them however when day one of this new system they come across problems with not knowing how then the general manager leaves in the middle of it unsolved just seems a bit irresponsible. Because of the trouble with check in they proceeded to charge me multiple times for my stay. We finally get into a room and it is not the king bed non smoking room wr reserved, it is a two double bed smoking room. We go back to the desk and tell them there must be a mistake and they say they rented their last one just a bit ago. Another lady finally chimes in and says they just cleaned one we are good. We get into the room with the toilet full and sink barely drains. They proceeded to continue to charge my card in the night because they had no idea how to manage the new system alone.

3rd time in 20 mins a charm?
When I arrived I was given a 1st floor room, and it was occupied when I got there, by a homeless guy, who broke in through the window. I was then given a second floor room the had a chirping smoke detector which drives be nuts. They didn't have batteries so my third room on the same night was just okay. Overall the front desk guy did what he could, but the facility was just unacceptable. I should have left it requested a refund.

Stay away from this place.
This stay was absolutely terrible. The night started off bad because my door would not work because it was stuck so the employees moved me to a different room where the sheets were dirty, there was a suspicious stain on the floor and the refrigerator had so many scratch marks. Not to mention the place reaked of weed. Also, I was only issued a partial refund which is totally unacceptable. I should not have to pay for a stay as bad as this. I actually moved to a different hotel and had such a better experience there
