Find somewhere else
Non smoke rooms smell like smoke, customer service sucks they think you’re threatening them because you speak firmly.
Music is played all night, during the day there’s barley anyone and at night time people use this motel for drugs and sex

Pet friendly is not pet friendly
First off I rented a room that was supposed to have a kitchen. Upon arrival oh those rooms are not pet friendly. So the hotel says pet friendly but it is not all pet friendly. My dogs are registered service animals being I'm a 100% disabled United States Marine. I brought my paperwork into the lobby with one of my dogs and was told I had to check out. My fogs are immaculate they do not stink and are so gentle and personality is top notch. My irtimerary says my room fee with the kitchen is 108 , I'm paying 126 for little...
box also I got a call for a 200$ pet deposit when clearly on the Swan Hotel website it says service animals no pet fee. The little dude at the front desk said it's up to him.
THIS PLACE STOLE MY MONEY AND THEN THEY CALLED THE COPS ON ME PET FRIENDLY JUST DON'T BRING A PET HERE OR BE EXHILED TO A SUBSTANDARD ROOM. OH AND THE WATER GOT BOTH MY DOGS SICK. Believe me

I reserved a non-smoking room for my son and I. When we checked in, I was giving a remote control for the TV with no back on it. Then when we got to our room and I opened the door, it was filled with the stinking stench of cigarettes or cigar smoking. There was no running water in the bathroom sink. The sheet on the bed had a huge tear to the bottom. I wouldn't stay here again nor would I recommend anyone to stay here.

Big updated rooms and bathrooms are a plus. Convenient airport shuttle service is available. At first a staff member couldn't find my reservation, but the morning person was very pleasant and helpful and straightened everything out. I just wish there was a hairdryer available in the bathroom.

Rudest receptionist ever
Do not ever stay here! For your security. Hotels.com if you keep playing with the algoritim of your ratings and offer places like this with a rate of 8 and above, I will consider stop using your services again because its dissapointing to expect a Very Good place and arrive to somewhere where the only you want to do is runaway

When I arrived at the hotel check in went smoothly. Getting to my room is smelled like someone had been smoking in there. The space was very small. I did not feel safe sleeping here && I was asked for a pet deposit after I had already checked out. I was never asked for a pet deposit when I checked in. T
