Good morning Michael, thank you for sharing your feedback. We are currently under renovation, in an effort to update our property. I apologize for the dismay you experienced. We now have a beautiful resurfaced parking lot and our lobby is looking wonderful from all the new upgrades. I did not have any reports from the elevator being down. I do hope you give us another chance in the future to earn a 10 star review from you. Thank you again, and have an amazing weekend!

I had high expectations of this property but I was very disappointed. When i arrived, my room was dirty with hair and skin in the bed. There was also a slight musty odor to the room. I reached out to the front desk and was moved to a nearby room. He asked me to look it over and I did. It seemed ok. Later on, I go to spray down everything and there is urine all under the toilet seat. Disgusting! As we settled in for the evening, we discover that the tv doesn't even work. The next morning, we are packing to go. Check out is at 11 am and its about 10:15 am. We take our luggage to the car. I go back up the room to do a double check to make sure nothing is left behind and my room door is open with the bed stripped. Mind you, I had the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door AND checkout was not until 11am. The front worker says that housekeeping probably saw me leaving and thought we were gone. Unacceptable. My check out time was 11 and I wasn't leaving just yet. I was supposed to get a call from management but of course that didnt happen. I get excited when I can post great reviews but this one just wasn't it.
Response from Temeka T on 31 May 2023
Kristy, I actually had the pleasure of speaking to you on the day of check out. I apologize that your experience was not a great one. We always strive to create positive, memorable experiences for all of our guests. So when we drop the ball we really do try to make things right. I have reached out to you, looking forward to speaking to you soon.
