Multiple problems that are likely related to the staff (with a possible exception here and there), as my stay here nearly two years ago was nowhere near this bad. TLDR: I would not recommend this location, especially if you have to leave early in the morning or check out early. I would either pay a bit extra for the sister hotel not far from there or stay out of town. Also, bring your own soap and breakfast if you not heed this warning. My room initially did not have soap bars (I had to ask the front desk for some). When my room was cleaned, my unopened package of spare soap was removed, and my friend did not have his soap replenished. When we both went downstairs to ask about soap, we were told that they were out of soap. How a hotel that is supposedly rated nearly 4 stars on this website can not have soap (even if it is generally a 2 star hotel) is beyond me. Either what they say is true, or someone is stealing soap when they are cleaning. Regarding the cleaning policy in place here, my friend/colleague apparently did not have a sign regarding the cleaning policy in his room (which my room did), so he was unaware of a default policy of cleaning linen ever third day of stay. He had his own problems separate from mine that he may be writing a review of his own later. The room itself was ok, but the AC unit was a bit loud. The wifi is useable, but the initial connection seems to be somewhat spotty for all of their available networks. The back door of the hotel also remained unlocked 24/7 (you can get in without using a room card), so that was not exactly a comforting thought during my stay. Their breakfast time is supposed to be at 6:00 AM; however, during the week days, the person in charge of preparing the breakfast items only seems to start preparing the options at 6:00 AM (when he is not watching TV in the breakfast area anyway). There were definitely cases where not all of the hot breakfast items were not ready before 6:30 AM, when we unfortunately needed to try to get on the road. On weekends, we did not experience this problem whatsoever with a different person preparing the breakfast then, so there is clearly a staff problem on weekdays. I don’t expect anything spectacular at hotels when it comes to breakfast, but it should be expected to have everything (or mostly ready) by their specified time. One other thing to note is that their coffee cups do not have caps for traveling, so don’t forget your travel cup if you intend on staying here. While I certainly did not book the hotel for its pool, I noted that is was as green as the Green Goblin. Granted, they might say this is due to COVID restrictions, but with such restrictions being relaxed across the country, I think this is due to other issues with this hotel. If you are self conscious about using exercise rooms in a hotel or in general (also not a reason I initially chose this hotel), I think you might have a good reason to be with this room. Apparently, the room has a large w
