I was denied a room despite having a confirmed booking
Pros:

I only got to see the parking lot and check-in desk and clerk

Cons:

They claimed they had a room available when I called well ahead of arriving. Two couples were complaining to the desk clerk that they had confirmed reservations, but the clerk insisted they didn’t have any available rooms. Not even with my confirmed reservation.

Would not recommend to many problems
Pros:

The rooms were clean

Cons:

I booked for a handicap room and when I checked in was told no room. And to top it off the room I got was on the second floor. No elevator was also a big disappointment also. Tv stations were to few for the service. The ac unit in the room was very noisy.
