Shower rod nearly falling off. When we asked an employee to call the next-door neighbor to turn down the blaring TV so my wife and grandchildren could sleep at 11PM, they told us to knock on the neighbor's door ourselves. Not fun to do but I did it to get some sleep. The walls and connecting doors are not soundproof.

The ceiling in the bathroom was falling in. The pool was dirt brown. The beds were uncomfortable and I found hairs in them. Bathroom was so gross I wouldn’t even use it. There was a plastic bag covering the smoke detector. 0/10 DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

Check in was easy but I was charged a $5 fee that hotels.com didn’t charge. The room was big but dirty. Under the cushions of little sofa was disgusting. There were more crumbs and food chunks and trash than you would ever want to see in a hotel room. None of the ice machines worked in the whole building and when we asked about them looking them the manager on duty told us he was busy. The next morning they still were not working. The free breakfast was HORRIBLE even a joke. They had frozen egg and cheese omelets, waffles and cereal. The slide at the pool however was fun and the kids really enjoyed it. But I would NOT recommend this hotel to people. :(

Not bad, but definitely not fancy. Not in the best area of town. Very limited breakfast. The pool and slide were fun but hot tub was super hot and overflowing. Staff didn't have the clearest communication but overall nice and friendly.

Swimming pool was 2’ low. Hot tub was filthy, and the slide didn’t have enough flow, so the kids would get up and walk out of the slide and jump into the pool.

Welp. It was a roof over our head.

I will start with the positive, the people meant well and were nice. Allegedly new management. The rest is not so great. The property is in desperate need of a qualified handiman. Broken windows, shower curtain rods falling off, the slide up top is rusty and pulling from the wall a bit. The 3rs floor appears to be where the family who is managing/owns lives. They cook up there and the whole floor then smells of their meals. The microwave is so old it doesn't have clear buttons, the dresser drawers wont stay closed. They gave 3 towels for 4 people. The shampoo/conditioner is tiny so bring your own. Breakfast is SLIM pickings compared to every place I've been to and there is always someone watching you, which feels weird. Upon check out, no one was there so I had to just leave my key and hope for the best. These people mean well, but the whole experience frustrated me. I wish I had just paid a little more and stayed across the parking lot. This place needs significant work. I wish I had taken more photos.

The property is in a run down part of town with unused buildings that had boarded up windows. There were loud parties going on all through the night. The swimming pool was ice cold. The beds were so "firm" it felt like sleeping on plywood. When we left in the morning, there was a creepy guy that opened his door to watch my wife, our two daughters and I leave. He was only wearing a towel and was rubbing his chest while he watched us. There was nothing comfortable about our stay. If we had known we would have spent the money and stayed somewhere else.
