- SFShericka FreemanNov 8, 20251.0Horrible and Traumatic experience... Checked into my room, adjusted temperature because the room was freezing. Went to dinner, came back and was met with roaches on the wall, on the night stand and in the bathroom. Totally traumatized me. I frantically started grabbing my things with hopes that they had not infiltrated my luggage. I immediately went to the front desk with items in tow. Requesting a refund. I'm not paying $742.00 to sleep with roaches. Needless to say, they did cancel my reservation and all pending charges. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
- IIIzabella IvieNov 6, 20255.0Very clean room. Extremely spacious and super comfortable bed!!
- LMLori MadarasOct 21, 20255.0Perfect suites, perfect staff,perfect parking. Loved my stay there ( which was 13 days!!!)
- PPPDSJul 24, 20254.0The rooms were nice, clean and it was a pleasant 2 day stay. I would go back.
- ALAshley LeonardJun 27, 20251.0During my stay, I encountered a roach crawling up my neck one night, as depicted in the image with the bug near the Apple Watch charger. Subsequently, I observed more roaches. The incident caused significant distress and prevented me from sleeping. I promptly informed the front desk, which promptly switched my room for the remainder of my stay. The manager contacted me that morning to explain that the roach infestation was a direct consequence of the extermination service that had recently been conducted at the hotel. Instead of a refund (at least for the night of the incident) he gave me “IHG Rewards Points”. Don’t stay here!!!!
