Checked in and just needed the room for the night. Woke up packed up and jumped in the shower to find the handles missing. Don’t know what that was about but I’m sure this place has better rooms and it was just a miss by maintenance. Front desk was professional, bed was clean no bed bugs thankfully, security on site, convenient location just that one thing wasn’t expected and really looked forward to a nice morning shower to kick the day off.

Not very clean. Ear bud was on the floor in my room when checking in, showing not really cleaned deeply or well. Also, I know the hotel says pet friendly but a dog in a crate was loud sporadically, however, that’s out of the hotel’s control. I did not try to get a room change, but I’m sure they would have if requested.
