Roof was leaking rain into our room. Woke at 2am to find our ceiling leaking water directly into the bed. Complete disaster of a property. Told staff about the leak. They should have comped us the room but I expect we were not the only room with leaks and that would have been a problem for them. If you stay here make sure you get a first floor room so you don’t awake to a bed covered in rain water.

Upon check-in, there was a bra left by the safe and safe not working. Lock on the broken and trash under the bed. Our room was next to the pool but also the laundry room and main door. Lots of noise and slamming doors until 3am. Room was $147 a night on the app but a guest in front of me checked in at under $60night. Location was ideal

Brief stay

Close to good restaurants but I would not stay again. There was a woman yelling in the halls in the middle of the night. The outside of the building does not present well. Frond desk staff polite.

Worst Hotel I have Stayed At!

The first thing I noticed was the "Park at Your Own Risk" sign in the parking lot, not a great start. When reading the previous reviews people mentioned that the hotel needed updating but...OMG that was an understatement! The door in the parking lot that leads into the building was broken so it did not lock, anyone off the street could walk in. Entering the hallway there was an atrocious smell, can't even describe it, thank God it at least didn't travel into the actual room. The room itself was dingy, dirty, carpet was disgusting, paint peeling, walls dirty and all scratched up. In the bathroom there was a clear trash bag in the trash bin where you can see some kind of red stain that dripped down inside, I do not even want to know what that was. The shower drain was rusted and the floor around the edges had black build up. The only thing that made our stay ok for the ONE night was that the bed and sheets were clean and comfortable. If it wasn't too late and if we were staying longer than one night we would have left! I do not recommend!!

The entire hotel was very dirty & is falling apart. My curtains were completely ripped in multiple places with yellow stains on them. My smoke detector was ripped out of the ceiling & just wires were left. I went to turn on the desk light & sparks flew across the room causing the circuit breaker to knock out the power throughout our room. The rugs were so dirty & covered with stains that our socks were covered in dirt. The pool had a white foam floating on the water. The halls smelled gross. Overall I think this hotel needs to be completely remodeled. I have nothing good to say about it.

Get what you pay for - stay away

Location wise - it was perfect. That was about it for positives. Exterior is dirty and unmaintained. Hallways reel of bod or odor and musk. Wallpaper peeling, no stoppers in sinks or bathtub, sink didn’t fully drain, tub leaked from underneath, all the appliances were plugged into a surge protected which was hanging from the side of the mini fridge, shelving hung crooked, hair in the bed sheets, the doors were so disgusting, with the locks appearing to have been busted open. The curtains on the glass door were not only shredded, but huge yellow stains all over it. I honestly couldn’t believe they allow hotels like this to stay in business.
