The room was horrible dirty, when you call customer service it takes 7 or more calls for some to finally answer and when they do it takes them hours to get your what you want, bathroom clogged 3 out of the 5 days we were there and every time we had to call multiple times for someone to come to fix it and had to beg because the kids needed the bathroom, room service came once the whole stay when we requested it twice, towel changes required 7 calls everyday to get them and then 3 hour wait on them because the person going around doesn't knock the door just says towels in the whole way and your supposed to hear him if your inside and if your not too bad. Massive renovations need to be done and the place just uncomfortably dirty

Don’t stay here not worth it.

The hotel room was riddled with mold to the point it affected my breathing. The beds were extremely tough and not comfortable. The stove top would just turn on by itself to the point we had to unplug it and to add insult to injury the pool was closed.

Unfortunately, the hotel was not as advertised. There are pictures of a pool on the internet but I was told they haven’t had a pool in years . Also there were some unfinished things in my hotel such as the shower didn’t have a door and water constantly was on the floor . There were maintenance materials left in the room as if someone had just been working in it . In addition to the actual room the hotel hallways had an unpleasant smell and damaged walls/doors . I was there fr out of town and highly disappointed in the level Of quality they offered . I believe I should be compensated!
