The Crazinessi of Hotel Rooms
Pros:

Brenya (?) and I work together elsewhere and she went from that road trip about 24 hours and went to work here for a t least 10 hours. She didn't go to bed until later. Of course, she did snooze on the bus.
My room didn't have a remote so she went to the storage room to get it...

Cons:

The room was a handicap room. I took a shower and when I got out, half the floor had a puddle of water. What IF I was a real handicapped person? I could half fell. I then knew why the carpet was wet. Then, the fire alarm went off.

Pros:

Staff was friendly and check-in was super quick and easy. Everything was clean and the bed was comfy

Cons:

It was uncomfortably hot and the air conditioner was leaking all over the floor... The carpets were all wet even to the bed so every time you got out of bed you'd get wet feet. It also stank like mildew really bad and my girlfriend got a bit nauseous from staying in the room breathing all that in through the night...

Pros:

The staff were amazing, friendly, and welcoming. Check in was quick and easy, making the entire arrival process smooth.

Cons:

The only area of the hotel that seemed to have air conditioning was the lobby. Our room was very hot, and the floor was wet when we got in our room when we first arrived. Because the room stayed so warm, I didn’t sleep well at all.

Cons:

I had booked the room, but when I got to the hotel and I talked to the lady, she told me that there was an accidental fee that I had to pay, and when I went to book the room, I was not told about the accidental fee until I got to the hotel. so I do not recommend this hotel to no one. since I received a bad experience, can we get a free room?
