We ended up leaving and not even staying at the hotel because it smelled of smoke, was dirty, and there was no staff to help.

Hi Stacy,We apologize for failing to meet your expectations. We take cleanliness very seriously and it looks like you caught us at our worst. We do ask any guest that violates our smoking policy to leave immediately. If you did not see a staff member at the Front Desk, it is very likely that they were doing just that. We hope that you give us another chance in the future so that we can earn a perfect score from you!

I had an accessible room on the 2nd floor and it smelled like a thousand cigarettes and cat pee. The rest of the hotel was ok but it’s very near a truck stop and an even cheaper motel right next door.

Response from GM on Mar 16, 2024
Dear Lizabeth,We apologize for the smell. We have a zero tolerance for smoking indoors and we have a smoke machine that should have been used to ensure there was no trace for the next guest. I realize that it seems we have failed on this occasion and for that I am sincerely sorry. We hope that you give us another chance in the future.

Dear Guest,We had put up signs two days in advance all over the property for scheduled hot water maintenance between check-in and check-out time to minimize guest impact. We apologize if you did not see the signs and attempted to shower during this time period.Additionally, our fitness equipment is new and if there were any questions on how to use anything then you should have reached out to the Front Desk so that we could have showed you how to use the machines. We apologize for any confusion with the equipment. We hope that you give us another chance in the future so that we can earn a perfect score from you!

I went to check in a half hour after check in time and my room wasn't ready so I had to wait a bit to get a room. I requested a disability accessible room and got one on the third floor. The heating/cooling unit in our room didn't work right so we ended up either super hot or freezing there was no in between. The staff was absolutely amazing though. They were kind and helpful.

Thanks for your feedback Nicole,We are sorry for not being able to get you into an accessible room. Those rooms get booked up quickly so it is advised to specifically book those rooms. Please let us know if you have any problems with the AC/Heat units. They are all knew and sometimes there is confusion with the settings but they all work very well as we know how important that is.

The room had bugs, smoke smell very strong, tub stopper did not work had to stop up with a towel. Gave me another room that room was not clean at all. Bed not made , trash still all over the room. TV’s not working properly. They sent us back to the Previous room with air fresher and cover the smell for a very minutes. Staff said they will take off my bill and when I check out, I stayed for two nights. Upon checking out the manager was very rude and cursing and would not give me the percentage that was stated on Friday upon checking in. Horrible experience for an out of town guest.

Dear Guest,I would have been happy to give you the refund if you had allowed me to investigate. Instead, you were yelling and cursing at our staff in the lobby and not allowing me to do my job of finding out what happened. We have zero tolerance for guest misconduct, verbal abuse, and physical threats. This policy applies to anyone on our property as we make sure that it is a safe space for everyone. We ask that you please find other accommodations next time you are in town as we do not allow this kind of behavior on our property.
