False Advertising?

Here's the deal. The web site shows a bathroom with granite sinks and a room with a flat screen TV. Our rooms looked like something that was decorated in the mid to late 1980's. We questioned the staff and they advised they could upgrade us for $10.00. We agreed, but the room was pretty much the same except for having a flat screen TV. This was a joke. We were informed that the rooms on the web site were suites. This is not what the site says. It has these pictures under guest rooms. I would pay a little more and stay at a nicer place. The best way to describe this hotel is that it is stuck in the late 1980's and has lost it's flair, but is trying to hang on without spending the necessary money to upgrade. No wireless internet in the rooms--that sucked too.
Pros: Good Location--Close to Easton & Downtown
Cons: Outdated
