While the room was clean…the curtains were old and crumbling apart. Only one elevator worked. They were rationing coffee cups. This property appears to have just changed hands.

We had a nice stay. The front desk was so accommodating to us! Very helpful with coupons for dinner and even providing cute coloring pages for my 4 year old. The breakfast assortment was yummy from making waffles to chobani yogurt! We were disappointed the pool was closed due to renovations. It never stated that when booking, maybe disclaimer should be provided especially when families book for the pool.

The carpet was stained, lamps were cracked, desk chair was torn across the seat, tub looked as if it had non skid stickers removed, there was no liner in the shower curtain, room curtains were not completely hooked and were not easy to use. The pool was closed and one of the elevators stopped working during our stay.

Ok, if you're picky i can see some issues. we found it fantastic value. normally the family uses the $250/nt across the street. this was better in many respects. big room with views, good beds, bfast until 11a means we actually had time to enjoy it! the napkins and paper plates went above and beyond. easy, safe, clean, convenient. if you wanted the pool, it was drained. there was old caulk i could've fixed in one minute. tv didn't get my game so i had to youtube it. if these upset you, ok, pay 2x a night and take your chances something else isn't wrong somewhere else. we found it tremendous value and will use this hotel when we are in town.

There were posted signs that the hotel was starting to undergo renovations. However that seemed to allow it to be messy for no reason. Our room door didn't work, we had to fight to get it to close or open. There were a pile of random screws behind the door. There was trash from a previous resident in our trash. One of the entry tables has a pile of dust and debris on it that wasn't cleaned up all three nights we were there. Otherwise, great breakfast and quiet.

Where should I start? Hair on the bed, the dirty brown rings of dirt in the bathtub, the not so bright white towels, or the brown stains on the comforters? After reporting it, they agreed to clean however, when we returned back o the room, nothing changed! Believe me , I searched within a 40 mile radius for another hotel but every place was sold out. House keeping was a joke! They came into the room emptied the trash, and left the bed’s undone, and no towels. I requested housekeeping and in the 5 ….FIVE nights we were there….only 1 … ONE TIME provided. Description on this hotel said microwave, right? Well… in order to heat up something, you’ll have to leave the hotel room with your food to return to the lobby to heat up your food. How annoying is that?!!!! Roma should have a microwave!! Never will I return to this hotel again and I suggest that you don’t even consider them either!

Checked in to Room 135, room was nasty, I turned down the bed and noticed stains under the sheet. It was yellow stains all over the mattress. It was horrific it look like someone just decided to urinate over the entire mattress. We went to find the young girl who checked us and we were able to get a double room not a king what we had but it was somewhat clean enough to sleep for one night. I expected more the curtains in the first room look like a rag that was hung on the window the blind didn’t work. They didn’t have cookies which every Country Inn that I have ever been in had fresh cookies. Needless to say I was disappointed in the whole experience. It takes no time to clean a room you guys need to do better!!

The property is subpar for the rating Hotel.com gave. Our room had 7Let me repeat 7 love bugs in different areas of room (all were removed before we slept) the drapes were actually torn an hanging. Since we stayed two nights we were advised NO Housecleaning (I had to go to front desk for towels 5 workers standing there but no one to deliver guest fresh towels) the desk chair arm was broken cutting into my partners arm bleeding down his arm. Called front desk reply”We are under remodel” breakfast on second day was poorly supplied of meager food items. Coffee was cold a not resupplied. No waffle mix available. All staff crowded at front desk totally ignoring guest

The stay wasn't too bad. Hotel was nice. Parking was not fun as there wasn't many spots left when we arrived. No trash bags for the little garbage cans in the rooms which I thought was odd, I requested to have joining rooms but didn't get any(which maybe they didn't have any left), and the rooms are definitely not sound proof!!!! We could not get to sleep due to another room talking very loudly and carrying on late into the night. It was not pleasant because we had to be up early the next day for a wrestling tournament. Not to mention it was daylights saving so we lost an hour of sleep. If they promote the rooms being soundproof then they need to be that way. Also, offer free breakfast at the least.

Checked in on 10/3 first room was dirty still and not cleaned yet. Tiffany took care of the issue . 10/4 - started off with hair dryer catching on fire had to get a replacement cable went Saturday morning and never came back on. The room wasn’t cleaned when we left for some time. Came back asked the desk clerk Ally for towels and that the cable wasn’t work to watch college football. She denied me clean towels because housekeeping was not there that day and the cable was before upgraded so it was going to be out . Went to a wedding and came back to change so I asked Ally for her name so I can get it right when I make a complaint to Radisson. Her answer for the towels was it was not her department and house keeping was off. I replied I have no clean towels so how am I suppose to take a shower and dry off. I travel a lot in and out of the country with this being my worst experience ever. I normally go with the flow but when someone tells me it’s not their department and cable is being upgraded on a Saturday with great games on . She just made excuses instead of finding a solution . I even offered to show her how to operate the washer and dryer if she did not how to use them.

Well I booked online through hotels.com went to check in after 2pm the red head girl at the desk started giving me a hard time because I had already paid and even showed her my receipt then she had the nerve to say well it’s not showing on my end so you can’t check in I politely said I’m not paying twice give me my room keys that I have already paid for it took the manager to come out and fix everything a few hours later. I was not happy everyone else at the hotel was friendly except for the young red head she should find a new job where you don’t have to help the public. She literally was like I’m not checking you in I don’t know who made you the gatekeeper when I already paid next time I will stay somewhere else
