Damp, musty & oppressive are the words to describe the air condition in the room I was given - I had to purchase Damp Rid & several air fresheners to get the overall smell & air quality to improve somewhat. Having carpet throughout a property with a pool that multiple people trek water in from daily will contribute to a dank, dismal atmosphere.
The crusty substance stuck to the microwave plate for God knows how long (discovered on my first night at this property - along with a filthy washcloth & used 'Duck Bill clip') in a room I was told was clean, gave me every reason to doubt the level of service provided by housekeeping at this location - however, the receptionist's prompt attention to the matter of remedying the crusty microwave plate situation, made me a little less uncomfortable about staying here.
For the duration of my time at this Choice hotel. I found the staff's service provision & professionalism to be a mixed bag - with some employees forgetting that it is simply their job to cater for a guest's basic needs & behaving as if they are entitled to refer to/address the guest according to whatever whim took their fancy. Contrastingly, the manager was always kind & helpful with respect to requests for assistance. Perhaps the staff could be trained to comport themselves in a similar fashion.
The location is in a generally safe area, but it takes too long to get to restaurants & shops.
I told Jeremiah they'd never see me again & it's a promise I'm happy to keep!
