Run as fast as you can!

I was very disappointed in this hotel after seeing the many reviews on this place I had addressed my concerns with hotel .com and hotel.com spoke to the hotel but I still had cockroaches running in the bathroom and my bed. With my daughter.when I spoke to manager about she send the housekeeper. I told her that it was nothing she could do hey need an exterminator to spray. I checked out and went to another hotel. I came for a happy time and this was a nightmare with this hotel!

I booked a room here last minute, the photos looked like a decent hotel. The room was absolutely filthy. There was a hole in the bathroom wall that I could see into the ceiling through. I do not think this room has been cleaned not only for me but after multiple stays of other people, there were splatters all over the walls and doors. I got out of the shower and there was a cockroach crawling down the wall. Even if staying at a budget hotel, there should be a level of expected cleanliness. Someone tried opening my door around 1am. The curtains were covered in stains. It was missing furniture, and lamps. The shower curtain and towels were stained. I’m pretty sure the sheets were not fresh either. This is not a “3 star” hotel and I have no idea how they more than a 0 for reviews. This place is a health code violation, I have photos of everything and look forward to hearing back from you.

The beds and pillows were comfortable. The room had dog food pieces on the floor. The curtains had stains on them, the bed cover had burn holes in it. There were only 2 towels, 1 wash rag, and 1 hand towel in a 2 queen bed room. there was 1/2 roll of toilet paper when we arrived. We asked to get more towels and they said they didn't have any. The pool was shut down by the health department.

Horrible stay! In 50 years, ive stayed at many places, but never once til now did i truly want my money back. Staff was ridiculous. Had to wait 2 hrs to check in. Then the room they gave us was not cleaned. It had food and trash everywhere and all bed linens in a ball on the floor. Tried to call the desk and phone dont work. Walked back down stairs and informed desk. They didnt believe me. Then gave me another room 2 buildings away (3 building property). I refused, as i just carried all our luggage up the stairs and demanded a room near the first one. They gave me one below it then. This room smelled horrible, sheets were stained, wall had blood stains, blanket had cig burns. Wife brushed her teeth and it took literally 6 hrs for the water to drain down the sink. When we showered we stood in ankle deep dirty water. Went in the office for the advertised breakfast. They had nothing and the desk woman was fighting with a vagrant to leave. The vagrant was hungry. We coukdnt wait to leave. Expedia needs to refund us for this joke of a stay.

This was reasonably priced and all we needed for an overnight stay. The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. To make this a 4 or 5 star would only take 2 investments. 1.) Exterior and interior doors need painting as paint was peeling off both doors. 2.) Better quality towels.

A motel not a hotel

The property has mostly entrances that are outside. The rug in my room was dirty and the room smelled musty.

Worst stay ever.

First day house keeping walks into the room after I declined housekeeping since it was the first day I was there. House keeping yelled at me for declined the service. Now I only stayed for about 8 days and I had to go to the front desk 5 times for new room keys. There’s almost never anyone at the front desk. You CAN NOT take breakfast to your room (Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches/cereal) I asked for extra towels twice only for house keeping to have NONE the entire 8 days no clean towels. Only had 3 lights and the room was dark unless the windows were open. I only stayed here because everything else was booked. Will never stay here again.
