Bed spread had a long yellowish stain, tub drain stopper didn’t work, there was a circle cut out in the carpet, dust dirt along wall under a/c, yellow/orange staining along the top of the walls by the ceiling, and we couldn’t close the drapes all the way because they weren’t attach properly at the top.

The pool is the reason we made reservations for our stay. Very upset that was not online that pool was out of order. Ruined our stay. I had a 5 yr old very upset when we went to the hotel for his birthday so he could swim.

Stay somewhere else

While location may be essential, the quality and condition of the place is paramount. Unfortunately this hotel fell very short. The wallpaper was peeling from the walls and there was a constant smell of gas. The walkways were dark and the overall feel was exceptionally dated. We were informed upon arrival the pool was down which was disappointing. We will not stay here again.

Staff very friendly an helpful. Excellent breakfast. Suggestion: make the bar available for guests. Maybe instead of hiring a bartender use existing staff to serve guests like 7 to 9 in the evenings.
