They didn't leave the light on for me
I opened the door to my room, flipped the switch, no lights. I was able to turn on the bathroom light to see in order to turn on the light on the desk. The switch was sticky. Someone had spilled something on the lamp, lampshade (!?!), and desk. Housekeeping did NOT clean it up. Nor turn on the light by the bed, which is also controlled by the switch right by the door. Curtains were drawn when I entered; even during the day, with the curtains closed and lights off, it is pretty dark in there--how could they fail to see the lamp situation? Another hotel chain used to advertise "We'll leave the light on for you!" NOT this hotel.
Room was dark even with the lights finally on. Only one of the lamps by bed had a light bulb, and it was a dim, low-wattage bulb.
It was not all bad. The sheets and towels were clean. The sink was clean, but it didn't look like the counter in the bathroom was wiped down at all. Also the bathroom mirror was filmy, as if wiped with a wet cloth, not cleaned with glass cleaner.
Breakfast was good; biscuits and gravy, cereal, etc. Would have been nice to have yogurt and fresh fruit available, but...
Yes, it's an older hotel, with that older hotel smell, especially in the hallways. But the furnishings are reasonably nice, as is the updated counter top. With more thorough cleaning and actually preparing the room for guests who make a reservation a week in advance, this hotel could probably be a decent, low-cost place to stay.
