The hotel was dirty and run down from the entrance to the rooms to the pool. Breakfast was basic and the toaster didn’t work. The carpets were so badly dirty as was the pool. I’m not sure of our sheets had been changed as there was hair on the sheet when we pulled the blanket down. We wore shoes in our room even in the shower. Very unclean.

Property was filthy! Sheets were dirty, floors were dirty and there were dead an alive bugs 2 found in bed! The water was either hot or Hades hot there was no in between. AC barely kept room cool no where near cold. Construction on our floor was loud and started early, workers blared their music with no thought to guests. Whole lobby smelled like marijuana which was being smoked in the courtyard with doors open and staff didn’t say anything! This was $400 wasted and a long weekend ruined.

I was in town for a birthday party and reserved the room at this hotel due to the proximity of the party venue. When we arrived the outside looked decent and well kept but once I walked inside I immediately was met with a moldy smell, poor lighting and very dirty carpet in the waiting/breakfast area. When I got to my room it was much of the same, weird smell dirty carpet, hair in the shower. We were supposed to have two Queens, felt like Twins. It was only for a night but if you staying anymore than that I would stay far, far away from THIS location!

Stay away

The only good thing about this place are the employees. Amazing service butttttt…. The place is run down. The carpets are stained, the couch in the room was dirty, stains, written on, and it smelled. The carpets on the hallway were horrible full of stains, we had the pleasure of running into a long term resident (roach). Out of all the places i have stayed in this is one of the worst and most run down hotels. I imagine the carpets must be the original ones installed when this place was opened, there is no other explanation. I wouldn’t stay here again even if it was free.
