Our excitement to stay here lasted about five minutes. From a very cold and impersonal check in, to seeing our $500 room and looking at each other in disbelief. We felt we were in a time warp, and not in a good way. Not sure how many decades ago this place was built but I don't think it has seen a lick of paint since new. From threadbare carpets to wood trim all scratched and dinged to antiquated everything, it's painful to see. Even the TV in our room was so old I couldn't download EPSN to watch the US Open since DirecTV had a Disney blackout. No complimentary water, no coffee maker in the room, it's beyond basic. The only positive, other than the view, was that the manager allowed us to get out of there after just one night and refunded the rest of our stay. I'm sure management will refute much of this, but it's not subjective, it is all fact for anyone to see. As another reviewer so aptly put it..."this is a Holiday Inn quality hotel posing and charging as a Ritz Carlton!".
