Don't get room you book!
Pros:

Beware....we booked a king room, got told we'd been upgraded and got to our room and it was two queens and bathroom with a bath!!! I have a bad back and struggle getting into a bath. When we complained they would do nothing about it!!! Also my pillow had such an awful smell about it...not sure what it was! Very very disappointed!!!

Pros:

Hotel was nicely acquainted. Only problem we encountered was getting the handicap bathroom but it worked fine just needed extra towels, which the facility provided. Rooms were clean, fitness area was nice. Pool wasn’t operational when we were there. A hot tub would be a nice addition.

Pros:

Was disappointed by our stay. All started with our toilet being clogged by the previous guest. Hotel staff was kind enough to give us a plunger, but made us plunge it ourselves. I wouldn’t expect that service at the cheapest motels, let alone here. Bathroom shower was slow to drain and shower head was loose, so either you had to kneel to shower or be directly against the wall to have shower spray. Wasn’t told about paying for parking either, but luckily saw that from reviews. Second night there were no spots left so we had to find street parking and walk despite paying. Can’t imagine how this goes football weekends. Would not stay here again, and with football surge pricing this is highly overpriced to the point of being a joke.
