The staff was nice. The carpet in the hall was dirty with dirt tracked in and had spots that needed to be replaced. The bed was uncomfortable. Someone had parked there truck with RV attached outside my window taking multiple spots, so I had to park on the other side. The car parked beside me had people smoking pot. The next morning I was trying to check out but because I was not going to stay, because I booked for 2 nights I was still being charged. The breakfast poor I couldn’t eat any of it because of gluten and lactose intolerance. Sorry but I traveled 10 hrs and really wished it was better.

I did not like anything about this hotel. It was hot, noisy, dirty and very uncomfortable. I went out of my way to stay there after seeing other reviews but now think maybe they have fallen in disrepair after the hurricane.

Property is under renovation. It’s an older building requiring updating. The staff definitely outshined the property. Their welcoming, caring and kind attitude made for a pleasant stay.

Dirty hotel .. Misled by Reviews

I was misled by rating and reviews which talk about how clean this hotel is. This hotel is very poorly maintained and needs a total rebuild. The carpets were dirty, the room had stains on lamp shades. phone was not working, surprisingly bath rooms were relatively clean. Beds were alright. We wanted to change our room and checked out 2 other rooms which were even worse. Not sure what they are renovating (for more than 4 months based on a review) but they are not renovating the rooms for sure. Will not recommend this hotel for anyone.
