I called ahead to inform them I was arriving at 1:00 am. When I arrived the employee opened the door never said hello - ever and had no customer service characteristics. When I checked out this morning there was broken glass and liquid in the hall - no one to tell at the desk - no bell to ring. The room was comfortable and clean.
