Staff is friendly but not professional. 3rd floor is horrible a lot of open abandoned rooms room was just okay bathroom floors not clean. Bed wasn’t comfortable. A lot of possible homeless people live there or maybe weekly renting not sure. Stingy on towels called every day for clean towels. They do have complimentary breakfast stops at 9. If u looking for something just to get by stay there. If u looking for a pleasant stay go somewhere else. The only positive thing I could say is they are directly across from the airport BTR…..

The sheets had white stains on them, there was no soaps in the bathroom, the sink knob was broken, hair was in the bed, floors were sticky, hand prints on the wall, smelled like an old cigarette, and it was people knocking on the walls all hours of the night

We got to the hotel around 545 pm to check in The young man that was behind the counter didn’t know what to do so all he said was “give me five minutes because she “he was referring to the person that was supposed to be behind the counter” just left but she is only five minutes away. Then he said I’m calling her right now so you can wait in the lobby until she is back. Long story short we waited over an hour and always asking him but he couldn’t give us an answer when someone was going to come back to check us in. After almost two hours we told the young man that this was unacceptable because we made a reservation and no one was there for us to check in He seems nervous and not knowing what to We decided to leave and I wrote a note for someone to call me back While we waited there was a group of people 5-7 young adults smoking marijuana in the pool area that was right by the entrance so with that we also decided this was not the place we wanted to be Please call me or do something about this because I was left with no other option but start looking for another place to spend the night I have done a lot of bookings with your website and this was absolutely an experience I don’t want to be in again Thanks
