Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Do Not Stay Here! Please!"
Overall Score1.0/ 5
The worst hotel that I?ve ever been to. Next month it will be leveled as a major chain will rebuilt. Holes in the wall, broken hair dryer, non working telephone, horrible cable television (7 channels!), missing dishes etc.. an embarrassment.. waste of $1500 for five days.

"Disappointed"
Overall Score2.0/ 5
I arrived at approximately 11:00 PM for a late check in. I was given the key card for my room. I entered the room and there was someone already in there! I went back to the desk and was given another room on the 4th floor. The elevator is poorly maintained. The lights on the 4th floor upon exiting the elevator is very poorly lit. I was planning on leaving my significant other for a night while I took care of some personal business, which I did not do. I would not leave her there alone. It is a very poorly kept college hotel. Noise all night, yelling, screaming, drinking etc. The kitchenette, if you can call it that is dirty. The silverware is dirty, the container the silverware was in is dirty. The cable is basic cable, the balcony door was very difficult to lock. There was not a blow dryer nor any balcony chairs as indicated on the website. When I asked to have these items, I was told we are a full hotel and they would not be able to fulfill my request! Really! Yes, you are a full hotel and my money is just as good as the next persons. Needless to say, I would not recommend this hotel for anyone who is interested in a safe quiet stay!

"Comfortable, convenient and very good for our needs"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We had a comfortable stay at a good price. Handicapped parking was very helpful. Almost everything was satisfactory for our needs. The shower was difficult to use for our age.
