The room was advertised as a $300 room on sale for $169. The pictures were beautiful and it was advertised with a pool. The room looked nothing like the pictures and it was very beatup. Walls were marked up and baseboards swollen and the lights flickered multiple times before coming on to reveal dirt and bugs in the light fixtures. These rooms arent worth $100 nevermind $169 and def not $300 nevermind the pool being closed . Would not stay again.

The smell of marijuana in the halls and lobby was overwhelming for the duration of our stay. There were peope loitering in the parking lot smoking and wandering aimlessly touching cars all hours of the day. The front door of the hotel was smashed and had apparently been like that for some time according to a staff member. Our bathroom was in disrepair and some outlets didn't work in our room.

Dirty room. Dirty hallways. Dirty walls. TV didnt have cable, only apps. But TV wasn’t connected to the internet. So no TV. Also, the pool has been under renovation for months with no expected date of reopening. Equivalent of ‘no pool’. Poop should not be listed as an amenity at this hotel.

The good thing was that the property is pet friendly. The front staff were also friendly and helpful; On the down side, the property is getting a little tired and in need of a renovation. The room is carpeted and full of many years of unpleasant odors. Unpleasant chemicals were used to disguise the smell. We expect better from Sandman.

I would not recommend this hotel. Smell of weed in elevator, hallways stunk and were dingy with wallpaper peeling off in places. The sheets on our bed were clean but the comfortor was very dirty and there was pubic hair in the bedside drawers.

The room was disgustingly dirty. The carpet was stained and filthy. The window sills and windows looked like they’d never been cleaned. The bathtub and toilet had permanent stains due to age. Hallways were in disrepair. Pool was out of order and not noted on Expedia. Railings were falling off and front entrance door smashed. Very unsafe for children or anyone with mobility issues
