Pet friendly rooms but zero outdoor areas designated for pets. There are trails you can drive to that are about 5-10 min area. People are camped out there so be aware of your surroundings. The room was great and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Would not let my family stay here again. They were told not to use the pool because he didn't want the floors to get wet because he already mopped 3 hours before the pool closed. Was told we get daily room service when I booked the trip from out of State but when they needed towels 2 days later were told oh you have to request room service . Very rude told my daughters they needed to come back and wash the blankets and sheets or they would be charged. I have 12 attempted charges on my card alone from $150 to $10 dollars. They also tried to do the same to my daughters card. Not a very professional place .

Okay. Not bad for the price

I wasn't expecting too much considering the price. The room was fine except the toilet was dirty. I wanted to use the hot tub. As I approached the pool and hot tub I questioned whether I wanted to get in or not as it appeared rough (no smooth) and didn't look clean. I touched my foot in the hot tub. It was the temp of pool water. I was saved by the temp and didn't venture in. The location was perfect for my trip as well as the price. If I made the same trip again, I would possible stay here again.

Just do yourself a favor and avoid this property. My family of three and two pets stayed for a quick place to sleep on a cross country trip. The room was disgusting to say the least. AC clogged with dirt and grime(YOU ALSO CANNOT CONTROL WHEN YOUR AC IS ON!!) the floors had leftover food in corners with mor grime. Dirt under the mattress, sink stopper was pulled out and clogged with what can be described as goo(you’re welcome for us cleaning that, I have before pictures). I could go on about something on the ceiling, stains on the wall, etc. I will also be leaving a google review of this place. And providing pictures as well as placing a complaint. I would have spoke with a manager, if I had felt as if anyone cared about doing any job efficiently, even a tiny bit.

This was probably one of the worst hotels we have stayed in. On the exterior, it’s very run down. It felt like an unsafe part of town, and there were suspicious people hanging out around the hotel after dark. Did not feel safe for the family. The room was nice looking when we entered but it had a funky smell (maybe like someone had smoked in there). We decided not to say anything, because we assumed that the entire hotel would have that issue. The bathroom door was unable to close and lock. One positive was the hot and cold breakfast spread.
