Toliet would flush when it wanted- had the guy at front desk come. He finally got to flush and then the next day was not flushing again. I was told that he would call his manager and never heard back. Bathroom light also had problems turning on- had to keep pushing the switch until it would finally go on. Remote also barely worked and when i pushed the buttons on the side of the tv it would only change input.

Staff was quiet but friendly . Room was clean and smelled good and perfect by the wonderful pool. The pool was a highlight for sure . Only small complaint was little mold in bathroom behind the door and the bathroom door did not shut , the door was bigger than the frame so you just had to hold it shut while using the facilities . Was hopeful for waffles for the kids but it was just cereal and bagels. But it did the job

For the price you really can't beat this. The Continental breakfast and pool were worth the stay alone and the staff was super great also.

whoever runs this place needs to be investigated by the health department. The room itself is a biohazard. I had to argue for hours to get a refund- mold growing off the bed frame and walls, broken mirrors and toilets. Reeks of smoke even in the non smoking rooms. to top it off they only have 1 worker and i feel bad for them. if i could add pictures i would. expedia needs to remove this hotel from its offers. unacceptable unclean and disgusting. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. do yourself a favor and get yourself a room across the street. just standing in the room here for 10 minutes made me and my family sick.
Mold all over the wall, bed frame and ac unit

The hotel was nice only reason I gave a one star on the property conditions was because of the roaches we kept seeing and we had water coming through the floor from the a/c

Was booked in a smoking room - desk said they were full - maybe they were, maybe they weren’t no stopper for bathtub. Thin walls. Not the hotel’s fault but the Mexican food across the parking lot was mid at best
