The guy was completely rude. I called them the day before to let them know me and my boyfriend and our children would be checking in still as my phone was broken. Told them we actually had to bring one more dog with us as the people who were going to watch her bailed on us we had no chose as the hotel was gana be our living place for couples days as we moved out of our home and will be in-between housing for a couple weeks but I do have ESA letters for all three dogs, the guy I spoke to said that would be fine. As we checked and paid we preceded to bring our three kids under 9 and our new baby and one kid that wasn’t staying was just helping us move. He stopped my boyfriend after bringing us in he went to get our dogs and he stopped him and was rude and said oh no oh no and started yelling at him. My son went down to tel him to grab the diaper bag and came back and said the guy wouldn’t let my boyfriend in and is kicking us out. So went downstairs and talked to the people and he show me and put his finger to my mouth as he did so

Multiple things in the room were broken or didn't work, towels, bed and pillows were all stained but you get what you pay for so I can't be overly critical.

Stay somewhere else

At 10:00 staff was knocking on guests doors. I opened the door and I was asked, When are you leaving? I said, Soon. And he shook his head. I asked, When is checkout? He said 11:00. I asked, what time is it? He answered 10:09. And I repeated, I'll be leaving soon. Then he knocked on the next person's door.
