The refrigerator had expired food and liquid that had been spilled. There was frost build up in the ice box. I have a registered service dog. And was informed that the hotel was NOT pet friendly. I was not allowed to have my registered service animal stay in the room with me.

The carpet in the room needs a deep cleaning. It was noticeable someone had smoked in the room. My allergies were triggered and it was difficult for me to sleep. The lady that worked in the kitchen was very unprofessional. Because someone didnt come to work, she spread her feelings to anyone that would listen. My husband got so upset, he ate in the room. The remainder of the staff were pleasant and accommodating.
