Worst stay I've ever had. Window was broken & boarded up with cardboard. Heater broken. At least the bed was somewhat acceptable. To make matters worse they never refunded my security deposit. I will be disputing the transaction with my credit card company. I don't know how they manage to have the rating that they do (6.2 stars when I booked) but don'I trust it like I did!

Not for couples but you can rough it, alone.

When I drove to the property, it’s condition is actually shocking. It really looks ‘run down ‘. The room, although below par, is not as bad as you may think, based on the outside appearance of the property. It has a refrigerator, microwave, flat screen TV with lots of channels, WIFI, and was not as bad as first thought... but it’s not for couples! You will be in the dog house for sure!

Travelocity said Computers were down and hotels Management said, "No record of myself in their system. " Was billed on credit card and no one from Travelocity has called me back. I'm displaced in my car, no shower, no Housing for tonight. Late for meetings in Dungy clothing and your sorry your Computers are down. What about your customer in the street. This is the 3rd incident with Travelocity. I'm calling State that governs your company, and request charge back to my card for inconvenience and room costs. Will not take credits in system like before. Need Management to call back like I requested.

Nečistý motel

Veškerý personál nepříliš přátelský. Úklid ani výměna ručníků neproběhly. Naštěstí jsme strávily jen 2 noci. Přidělené ručníky s černými fleky. Osušky žádné. Chybělo křeslo nebo židle a nebo stolek. Wi-fi nekvalitní.
