The room was crawling with bugs and was just very dirty. Smelling like urine and cigarette smoke. When we got to our room, we decided to immediately leave. We went to the desk and they did charge us for that night, which was fine. But agreed to refund us for the other 2 night we had booked. We then had to find another hotel at 1am. Poor property and subpar cleanliness, but nice staff.

Terrible stay

Booked this hotel for my family of 3 for a weekend vacation. The hotel room was disgusting, floors turned my little boys feet black, one bed boxspring was broken, there wasn’t enough towels and rags to begin our stay with. Hotel needs updating terribly, heard construction noises all night long come to find out the room beside ours was a construction room. The shower was nasty with chipped paint and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in many moons. I do not recommend staying here even for a night.

The bed had a dip in it as if the frame was broken underneath so it wasn’t very comfy. Also the deadbolt on the door didn’t work and the door didn’t seal properly, you could see light through the side.

Pool was really dirty. Sand at the bottom and very cloudy looking. No smell of chlorine. If people are in it during the day they don’t clean it. They close the pool exactly at 10 pm but don’t clean it at night. They would not let us stay in the an extra hour in the morning.

The bathroom area needed a good scrub down from ceiling to floor. The corners were especially dirty. The door had streaks running down it of something white. The breakfast was out of several selections by 9:00 AM. The tv kept switching to no signal but was fixed very quickly when reported. No cable available which was a disappointment. The building was run down and needed stair way hand rail repaired. We were satisfied with our stay because the price was very reasonable but things could have been better
