2/10 Terrible
"Worst reception ever. Place looked dirty even from the lobby and parking lot was unkept. Front desk clerk was so rude and unprofessional when he told me our reservation could not be honored because they were booked. He was not apologetic and walked away. I was happy not to stay there. Do not recommend this place."
