I want to start with the fact that the staff on site was incredibly friendly, check in was easy and they even got us in a little early. The staff member workong was very homest about the less than desirable location of the first room that she offerwd and was able to place us in another room. The bed in the room was comfortable and the linens appeared to be clean (and we did see fully stripped beds in rooms that were being cleaned, so i am confident in saying that they were clean). This is about where the good part of the experience ends. The lobby/dining area/business center were updated, but the hallways were worn, with missing patches of carpet. The ceilings are low and it felt very dark. The room we stayed in had a hole in the bathroom door, the chair provided in the room had torn fabric on it. The refrigerator smelled terrible, as if someones leftovers had sat in it unattended for days. The hotel has a front and back parking lot. The back parking lot was a better access point to our room, but it had numerous things going on back there that made us extremely uncomfortable. First, when we arrived, a nicer vehicle was sitting back there set on lofts, missing its fuel cell and had a broken window???? Then a group were hanging out in a white pickup truck right outside the back door when we left and when we came back from our off site activity. There were additional shady characters, but i am out of space. I am not sure how this site had an 8 rating I would NOT recommend.
