i booked this hotel while i visited with my boyfriend graduating from basic training in fort moore. the hotel itself is beautiful, but there were several nasty stains on the wall of the bathroom that appear to be feces, as well as the sink leaking and leaving water all over the floor which i will notify them of again when i check out. we did however like the pool and the option to eat breakfast for free. i would come back again, but maybe to a different room.

The bathroom in our hotel was pretty dirty. Mold on the shower curtain and the mini fridge in the room did not close all the way. The carpet had weird stains on it, so did the walls.

We liked everything, except the curtains on the window were too long and didnt block out the lights from outside. Also the coffeemaker got stuck when we were trying to make coffee and we couldn't open it. I even asked the woman at the front desk for help and she couldn't get it open either.

This past sucks
Our room wasn’t cleaned unless we said something. We had to change our own bed and get clean towels. We need to leave a day early for emergency and they won’t refund one of stay.

Nice but a few minor flaws
The lobby was nice. Checkin was great. The room had a few items that I will remark about. The smell was of an older place. The shower had unappealing walls. The bottom of the bathroom door was well warped. The bathroom exhaust fan was noisy. The curtain did not close. The plumbing in the bathroom was below par, but the beds were great. We missed breakfast due to early surgery. But did get coffee in lobby. Room coffee maker not working per design. The hotel only had 1 ice maker on the 4 th floor that was operational. We were lucky enough to get the ground floor like we requested.
