Advertise for breakfast and it was not available. There was no staff the entire stay. Had only a couple channels and took hours to get a hold of anyone and it still was not fixed. Do not recommend this hotel for anyone.

Me and several other guests were waiting at the front desk to check in for over an hour. There was no breakfast like the ad said when I booked. Turns out it's a seasonal thing and isn't offered in October. The room was clean other than the previous occupants shampoo and conditioner were still in the shower. Neighbors were up and down the halls fighting with each other every night. Restaurants and stores are all walking distance.

Clean room though an uncomfortable bed. Our room was downstairs and the noise from upstairs kept us awake through the night.
