The staff was so friendly and helpful. The front desk person was super kind, she allowed us to check in a little early, she pointed out exactly where our room was located and where to park. Upon arriving at our room, the housekeeper told us t be careful because she had just mopped our room. A few minutes after settling in our room, the housekeeper stopped by to make sure everything was to our liking. The room was completely renovated, it was very clean and comfortable.

Nikki

Disliked: Amenities
Our room was so humid. I stayed there for graduation from graduate school and went with my hair poofy from moisture and makeup messed up from never cooling off after my shower. We found food crumbs on the floor. There were bugs in the sink, the shower was stained and dirty, and a hole had been plastered in the bathroom. The plaster smelled horrendous. It made the entire bathroom smell. I was afraid it would make my cap and gown smell the same. The sheets didn’t seem very clean. I had my husband go buy me a pillowcase to sleep on. The one positive is the staff at check in/check out were very pleasant.
