I’d stay here every time I’m in town but cannot because the bed is hard as a rock and the pillows are massive. How can anybody sleep? I’m leaving with a messed up neck and back. Pillows were a good 2 ft thick. Had to call night 2 close to midnight begging for a smaller softer one.

1st ADA room. Toilet tissue holder falling wall, toilet seat broken or loose, sliding glass door to bathroom would not stay closed. When taking shower, entire bathroom floor was wet. Notified front counter before leaving for a few hours. When we came back, nothing was fixed. Moved to another ADA room. Better, bathroom had about an inch of water around toilet after 2 showers. Very poor drainage design
