Verified Reviews of University Square Hotel

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Hotel has gone way down hill."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
No A/C in lobby. 103 outside this evening. No elevator, we're on the 3rd floor. No pool! Room was 90 degrees upon entering g. Now at 85. A/C is very weak. TV only has 15 channels, no local. Bed (king) only has two small flat pillows. Had to reply in all lamps, neither were functioning. A once very nice classy hotel has sadly hit rick bottom. No we will never stay here again and we will make sure we tell our friends and family to steer away from this sad excuse of a hotel.
