Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The room had a mildew smell. Luckily I had some ozium in my car. A huge spider appeared in the bathroom while I was showering. My boyfriend had to come in and kill it. lol. Not a bad stay would stay again if rates were cheaper as it is not as fancy as it looks or sounds.
Motel room was infested with mosquitoes and flies. Everything was damp, bathroom smelled moldy. My husband took our daughter to the pool and within the first 10 minutes while I tried to get us settled I got covered in bites. We requested a check out within 20 minutes of arriving because of the lack of cleanliness, and an overall creepy vibe with the other patrons (which I know the motel cannot necessarily control). Front desk assured us we would get a refund working through hotels.com, but it ended up being denied. We noticed cans of bug spray outside of the hotel room next to us upon leaving. We were there less than an hour. Front desk staff seemed kind and knowledgeable about the area.
The staff was courteous and helpful. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfy.
They only down aisw was havinf a pool in full sun, with tables that had NO UMBRELLAS to offer some shade in the hot days of summer!
Very friendly staff, great restaurant. Room was nice and clean.
