Old overpriced mediocrity

by bsorge

Very disappointed. Older facility that needs updating. 32” tv was smallest I have see I a long time. Room temperature was hard to control. Bathroom fan had no control. Bed was comfortable, but sheets kept coming off. Pillows were hard as a rock. The breakfast was
Ok, but no yogurt and fruit was a banana. For the price they should deliver more.
If you must stay here don’t use booking.com as you will pay $ 10 over going rate.

I have stayed at other HI X locations and found this one to not be as updated or friendly. There was a funky smell which I overlooked since they were in the process of cleaning all the carpets. The interior seemed dated and dark. The parking area was dark and didn't feel safe. But they had a wonderful breakfast and the airport shuttle drivers were very friendly. I was only there for one night, so I didn't have a lot of interaction with the staff.
