The hotel was very dirty, man at front desk was very rude, never made it to the room asked to cancel and the wait staff wouldn't allow me to. Very unhappy and would like a refund. The place was unsafe and very dirty.

The staff was very friendly and personable. There was a smoke smell in the pillows in the non smoking room. Walls are thin so loud visitors was a problem.
