The hair dryer was inoperable, the coffeemaker didn't work, the TV didn't even work. The only redeeming amenity was the hot tub. The room was dirty and had roaches, the fridge was even leaking. I did only pay $370 for 4 nights tho, so I guess I should have known for how cheap it was. My RV had a dead battery when we checked out, so I left it overnight until I could put a new battery in the next day. Right after work I headed there to handle it, and manager came banging on my rv door while I was in the bathroom, thank god I had it locked with a chain lock as well because he tried to pull open my door with my dog in here, even though there was a sign that says beware of dog. When I came out the manager started screaming at me in front of everyone there. I was literally just putting in a new battery to get my RV gone, but he didn't care he continued to scream at me, KNOWING, I just dropped a bunch of money to stay here. If you want a comfortable and safe staycation or even just vacation, I wouldn't reccomend this place to anyone.

It wasn't a great stay. When my wife and I first got into our room, we noticed our sheets, towels, and pillow cases were dirty. There was black mold in the tub and you could tell no one had swept the bathroom floor. The hotel also had multiple cockroachs. The front desk was nice at first when we checked in but after they were kinda rube and took their time. multiple people were at the front window but they just stood around and talked while there were people waiting to be seen. We also had an incident with the soda machine. We asked if they had any other drinks or if possible we could get our money back since we had spent 3 dollars. It took a day to get our money back after front desk agreeing to give us our money back. Reason for not getting the money back was due to the two people at the front desk talking. We stood in the lobby for a while but and told them we would have to come back because we had to be somewhere and needed to get back to our room before leaving to our event. Wow! what a way to spend our 11th an anniversary huh? Never going back again.

The floor was super dirty turning my white sock black at the bottom. The heater wasn't working so it was a cold night. The toilet tank literally took 30 minutes to completely fill up and the shower head was spraying outside so you had a puddle on the floor.
