Checkin okay. Called to front desk to report an issue but there was no answer. Had to go down. Kuerig didn’t work. Shower door didn’t stay shut. Bed kinda hard but I realize that is subjective. Okay but wouldn’t stay again.

Staff was incredibly rude. You can tell that none of the employees want to be there. Also, do not book this hotel using a 3rd party (Expedia, Hotwire, etc.) They will cancel your reservation and blame it on the 3rd party so they can upcharge guests. Awful place and awful experience!!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Heater was broken, lights in bathroom flickered like a strobe light, hook broke off in bathroom. Stated the room would be handicap accessible. Only one poorly placed grab bar and no height adjustable or handheld shower head as listed. No communication from hotel when I stated my grievances. The owner’s Maserati parked in front of entrance with another car so I had a hard time loading elderly parents and luggage when leaving. This is not hospitality. Most expensive yet worst hotel we stayed at on our trip.
