"The hotel was clean, but the bedside table was a bit banged up.2017-06-22"
"The hotel was close to the highway, shops, restaurants, and the Air Force Academy. The AC in my room worked well and was quiet. I liked the ceiling fan, too. The carpet in the room and hallway was stained. There was a hole in the bedsheets, the pillows were lumpy, and the towels felt like sandpaper. The sink was stained; I asked for it to be cleaned, but it didn't happen. The elevator was dirty, and the snack machine was mostly empty. I appreciated the 20% discount at Denny's.2015-09-09"
"The hotel room was dusty. The TV had to be programmed by staff to operate. The sofa was stained, and lightbulbs were burned out. Only one set of towels provided.2015-06-22"

"Hotel needed maintenance. Non-smoking room smelled like smoke. The ceiling had water damage that was painted over, and the carpet was well past its replacement date. The TV was blurry, and some channels had no sound. The toilet was clogged. We were moved to another room. It was slightly better, but the TV and carpet were also in bad shape, and the lock wasn't secure. The heater blew debris on the bed when I turned it on. Stay somewhere else.2015-03-12"

"The rates were low. I had to navigate 3 police cars at the hotel entrance when I arrived. Looked clean, but the room and bed smelled like body odor. The bedsheets were scratchy, and the slippery bedspread kept falling off the bed. Slow Internet connection. The kitchenette wasn't stocked, so I had to ask for every little thing I needed. No toilet paper or trash can in the bathroom, so I had to ask for those, too. I didn't feel safe and didn't enjoy my stay.2017-04-08"
"The hotel was fairly comfortable and clean, though I saw a few spiders and ants. Ask for a room on the top floor and away from exit doors so you don't have to listen to people walking around and going in and out all the time. Good experience.2015-08-30"
