4/10 Poor

"I asked the desk to make the safe in my room accessible, never happened. The hair dryer did not work due to the outlet it was plugged into not resetting the gfi not possible. There was an ironing board but no iron. They had a ridiculous rule you can't take what lack luster offerings they had for breakfast to your guest room. By lack luster i mean old apples, orange juice machine empty, no bagels, donuts, just 2 basic dry cereal options or a waffle machine. Checking in was a nightmare. People were slamming doors constantly throughout the night. The room was clean and looks like they were painting the interior of the place. This was a one and done for me. "
