This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. Stains all over curtains and couches. Toilets were broken, breakfast was horrible ( beans and hot dogs). For the money we paid it was horrible.

The bed was broken, no one responded to my message about it. If you put your weight near the top it literally flipped up.
The walls had a lot of damage in the room.
Overall it was an ok hotel for the price we paid, nothing fancy, but have definately seen worse.
I wouldn’t stay here again even if it was free.
When we got in they were doing pool maintenance which is fair, it happens…
So the kids were disappointed right off the bat.
When we checked into our room we realized after about an hour that our toilet was broken. The seat wasn’t attached and it wouldn’t flush. I went to front desk to tell them and they told me it would be another 1.5 hours for a room. This of course was annoying to us. The so called manager was SO rude to me to the point where I had to go get my husband to talk to him. He was of course wayyy more respectful to him. We went out for dinner and when we came home we got checked into another room. After swimming I came to the room to wash my face and realized our sink didn’t drain… the night hotel staff were wayyy nicer then the so called manager and they sent someone to come fix it. They didn’t fix it till about 10pm so we were able to finally go to bed. Morning breakfast was okay I guess… there was toast and cereal and it’s free so I guess I can’t complain. Next time I will spend the extra 50$ and go to Holiday Inn… I suggest everyone does the same.
Was an unplanned stay as our usual hotels were booked but turned out to be a great experience, and we have now switched our designated destinations. Spot service was amazing and the food at the restaurant was top quality with affordable pricing.
Staff were amazing. Food was even better. I will stay here for all my work stays. Breakfast was free, 2 eggs hashbrown and toast and much more. Cerial muffins coffee etc. Loved it. Again staff were so friendly kind and accommodating.
The room itself was not bad. The neighbors seemed like they were locals staying there and were screaming and fighting.
The staff could barely communicate in English. As in it took several tries to figure out what my reservation was!
No heat in my room, it was only 58 degrees in there!! No point in asking the staff.... they don't speak english!!!
No stopper for tub, only one glass in the room, staff and their children very loud and noisy in hallway and common area, couldn’t control the heat in the room, very poor attempt for a continental breakfast. Restaurant food was good.
Staff were very friendly and accommodating.
Located right off the hwy it was very convenient. I also liked that there was a restaurant where i could get a good meal after a long drive.
Very Friendly staff.
Not a big deal, but the complimentary breakfast offer a great selection with cereals, juices/coffee, fruit, yogurt,toast eggs and hashbrowns....suprised no meat (bacon or sausage)
Great value though
Thank you
The staff was friendly and helpful but the property was very rundown. Lights were kept off so it was darker than it should have been. There was a handwritten sign above the pay phones that said "$5 per ride" and had someone's phone number written. It felt very uncomfortable and unsafe.
