The property looks abandoned. The room looks nothing like what is advertised. The roof of the room shows water damage, the room smells, NO REFUND!!!!! The bathroom looks to be falling apart. If you want a comfortable safe place, this is not it. The hotel has over 100 rooms and it may only be 5 rooms being used by guest that has to stay due to not being able to get a refund. When I walked in the room, linen was on the floor and front desk had to come and retrieve it. Towels looked dirty, AC barely worked properly, lamp light only had one bulb that worked. For a single individual, I do not recommend in my opinion.
I'M NOT USUALLY ONE TO COMPLAIN...BUT...
IF I COULD GIVE ZERO (0) STARS I WOULD RATE THIS HOTEL 0⭐️🚫!
👎FALSE ADVERTISING BY HAVING PICS OF THE INDOOR WATERPARK & POOL ON THE WEBSITE...WASN'T JUST CLOSED, BUT ABSOLUTELY NO WATER IN SIGHT! (TOOK PICS FOR PROOF.)
NOTIFIED THE FRONT DESK REGISTRATION STAFF OF THIS & HE SAID, "NO POOL OR WATERPARK IN A FEW YEARS."...NO APOLOGY, NO ROOM DISCOUNT OFFER WHEN ASKED FOR A DISCOUNT DUE TO FALSE ADVERTISEMENT.
THE BATHROOM LIGHT BUZZED & FLASHED SO BAD ( ELECTRICAL FIRE HAZARD) WE COULDN'T USE THE LIGHT AT ALL. (TOOK VIDEO FOR PROOF.)
COULD ACTUALLY FEEL THE FLOOR (1ST FLOOR, GROUND LEVEL) MOVING UNDERNEATH OUR FEET BC IT WAS SO UNSTABLE.
ROOM SMELLED OF MILDEW.
NOTIFIED CHECKOUT STAFF OF THESE ISSUES PRIOR TO LEAVING, JUST SAID, "OK."
STAYED HERE SEVERAL TIMES DURING BASEBALL TOURNAMENTS PRIOR TO COVID & HAD NO COMPLAINTS...WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL TO ANYONE NOW! NOT SURE IF IT'S UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT, BUT DEFINITELY NEEDS MUCH IMPROVEMENTS, ESPECIALLY FOR ELECTRICAL HAZARDS & POTENTIAL INJURY FOR UNSTABLE FLOORS.
(BOOKED VIA HOTELS.COM, WHICH ALSO HAD THE SAME OUTDATED PICS.
RESERVATION WAS PREAUTHORIZED & WE CHECKED IN LATE AT NIGHT, SO WE DIDN'T GO TO ANOTHER HOTEL, DESPITE THE HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT IN THE LACK OF INDOOR POOL OR WATERPARK, ROOM CONDITION & CUSTOMER SERVICE.)

The front desk chaged a deposit and never gave it back. The hotel was nasty
It wasn’t the worst place I’ve ever stayed, but it could have been better. My comforter was dirty & we didn’t realize it until right before check out. Also, the cover for the bed had obvious burn holes from cigarettes. The room was humid and smelled musty, and it wasn’t completely clean. We found hair that wasn’t ours in the shower. It was convenient to get to, and the staff was friendly. I just wish it was cleaner.
Crappy room. Dirty beds. Blinds wouldn’t close all the way. The exterior door was tight next to the room and it wasn’t working, so it wasn’t locked and anyone could walk in
I booked this hotel through Hotels.com and prepaid $300 for a two-night stay. When we arrived, the front desk said they had no record of our reservation. They asked for an additional $56 to stay for one night and said we’d need to come back in the morning to try booking the second night. I showed them email confirmation, including details about a security deposit, but they refused to acknowledge it, wouldn’t answer questions, and kept insisting I swipe my card again without explanation.
The property was in extremely poor condition. The pool was drained and surrounded by boxes. The men’s bathroom had a urinal torn off the wall, and the trash was overflowing with fire extinguisher tags. The building looked unsafe—walls were visibly bowing, windows were broken, and none of the rooms had curtains. We also saw people loitering near the building, which added to the feeling of insecurity.
Because we were traveling with our two-year-old, we made the difficult decision to leave. All other hotels nearby were booked due to local graduations, so we drove through the night. We received no service and were left with no safe place to stay.
This hotel should not be listed on any booking site until major safety and service issues are resolved. It was completely misrepresented online and should not be offered as a lodging option in its current state.
The experience started off poorly with a late-night check-in that was anything but welcoming. The associate was on a personal call -- on speaker, no less -- while checking us in, barely acknowledging us. He told us we'd have to walk around to the back to access our room, only for us to find out later that we could have entered directly through the lobby.
Now, let's talk about the room. The only positive: the bed was large and fairly comfortable. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. The room was far from clean -- dirty underwear from a previous guest and what appeared to e a bloody washcloth were left on the floor. The toilet barely flushed, and when I tried to use the shower, the faucet literally fell off. To top it all off, the sheets and bedding where stained and had cigarette burns.
The only reason I stayed here was because I was attending a college graduation and all other nearby hotels were fully booked. This experience taught me a valuable lesson: never stay anywhere with less than three starts. You truly get what you pay for. I would never recommend this to anyone else.
The building is unsafe. The locks on the doors to the outside are broken. Could not get a person at the front desk, outlets broke in room, phone broke. Linens full of burn holes. Pull out couch had thin nasty mattress. Peeling paint on the ceilings, mold. Nasty carpets, no elevator for handicap. Structural failure of building walls and floor. Laundry room broken ice machines broken. Did not feel safe would not have stayed if not with others.

Liked: Room comfort
The key cards would only work one time. After using I had to go get a new card. Toilet kept getting stopped up and the shower handle fell off when turning shower on. Front desk didn’t seem to care and wasn’t surprised by it. Didn’t offer to send maintenance or swap rooms. Just “ thanks for letting me know “.
Total false advertising. Nasty very bad oder. Soil mattress laying by pool. Floor falling in as you came thru door. Motel looked unsafe outside. I did not stay. I left and had to find another motel room.
I have stayed in this hotel in the past and had a good visit so I returned. The staff member was not helpful he was focused on his cellphone game,the room had a hole in the floor, towels and sheets were dirty you can tell they have let the place become rundown.
