Felt gross. Bathroom door didn't latch, so I couldn't lock it! Paint stains on carpet... yet the whole place felt like it needed a fresh coat of paint. The breakfast server was lazy and inattentive - on her phone most of the time in the dinning room.

The cards in the hotel say they have extra amenities, but when we asked the night shift worker for a extra pillow and blanket, he told us we dont get any extras because we have a standard room. Everyone else was very nice.

Beds were comfortable, A/C worked well, it was quiet. Staff nice. Plumbing issues in the bathroom need attention. No housekeeping service during our 6-night stay there. Very stingy with towels, TP, coffee. Had to ask for more.
