Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This property was extremely unclean and did not match the photos at all. The pictures are very misleading, especially in terms of cleanliness. The bathroom floor had hair and crumbs scattered around, and the mirrors were covered in grime, as if they hadn’t been wiped down in days to weeks. It appeared the bathroom hadn’t been properly cleaned at all—there were even used sanitary products left behind from a previous guest. The hallways were extremely outdated, and the room itself felt damp and musty, making it uncomfortable to sleep in. The bathtub also had visible dirt and buildup. I strongly recommend spending a little more for a place that meets basic hygiene and cleanliness standards.

I booked a room with yourselves via the App Hotel.com for the event of 12th June 2025 as I was due after travelling from Norfolk Virginia via Philadelphia. Unfortunately upon landing at Philadelphia I learned that the onward flight to Orlando was cancelled. After much confusion and amongst the 100’s of other passengers in the same situation I realised I wasn t going to get to Orlando that evening. At 18.24 12/6 I called the hotel and spoke to Yash and advised the above' He said the reservation would be cancelled. No charge. Don’t worry about it. I heard nothing som on 17/6 8.05am I rang and spoke to Evelyn, who stated no show charged but released security deposit, charged as a no show. She said she will speak to yash who is the night manager get him to ring but he may not be able to dial International. I provided my Email address she said he would email To date i have heard absolutely nothing from Yash or Evelyn despite your promises. i have left 8 messages on the Hotel App where you claim you will respond by email, I have disputed the transaction based on the above conversation - yet you have invited I be charged You have refused as refund

Roaches in bathroom, some ones fake eyelashes on bed , vomit on chair, clumps of hair on floor , dust balls hanging from ceiling, room phone disgusting and did not work, the baby crib we requested was over used beat up and had chipped paint and dark scratches they did not clean it when they brought it I had to clean it myself and the mattress was as thin as a plank. Let’s not talk about the resort fees I was obligated to pay and they hold an incidental fee from your card that they don’t discuss with the guest. I will be posting a review in every social media platform and contact who ever I have to to report this problem.

Will not book rooms here again.

Terrible place to stay. One of the rooms had severe moisture damage to the ceiling. AC could not keep up, most of the time it felt like it was blowing warm air. Beds were uncomfortable and I'm not sure they even changed the bedding. They said they did, but the dirt and hair on the sheets said different.

The staff was okay it’s just I had to move to 3 different rooms for my stay because the shower was cold in the first room, 2nd room was flooding with water and smelled like strong smoke, and the 3rd room was okay and finally came with a microwave. I didn’t like the idea of moving to different rooms it would’ve been nice if i stayed in a room that’s good within my 3 nights of staying there.

The property itself was a nice property but at 6:00am a guest came into my bedroom. I was immediately startled. She apologized saying that it was supposed to be empty. Later than morning the maid tried to enter apologizing again. At 9:15am, another maid used her key to get in the room, what a morning. We were scheduled to be at the track all day, so i was not happy. They compensated the resort fees $31 plus dollars. Don't know what to say about the security and the attentiveness of the staff. Manager said computer issues but front desk never said anything
